set your safety to green, and if scooping it will cause you to gain a flag, it won't let you scoop it.

Yay, this account hasn't had its signature banned. or its account, if you're reading this.

Yellow means it's not yours to take. If you take it anyway yes, you will be flagged.

align to a station so your route passes the container.
scoop and warp in one smooth movement.
don't do this if u think it might be a trap.
u might lose your freighter.

Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85

Well, if you do as he said and align and pass by the container in atleast 75% speed, you would insta warp.

Hi there!

As a rule, ANY MANUFACTURED container, whether it be yours or someone elses, can be SCOOPED into cargo so long
as it is not anchored. A FREIGHT container will, of course, require a freighter.

If you attempt to open the can and take the contents with your safety off, you could be flagged. But scooping a can into cargo whole is certainly allowed.

I endorse this behavior as a way to keep the spacelanes and belts clean.
