Wiki Q&A

This option controls whether you can loot corpses of players with "allied" (green) notoriety in the Grid Loot interface. When enabled (default: On), you must untick "Block Looting" in the Grid Loot menu before you can loot such corpses [1]. This is a safety feature to prevent accidentally looting allied players' corpses, which could have negative consequences. Whether you want it on depends on your playstyle: if you frequently group with allies and want to avoid accidental looting, keep it on; if you often need to loot allied corpses quickly, you may turn it off. The option is listed under Client Options > Corpses > Grid Loot [2]. Note that this is separate from the "Block looting innocent (blue) corpses" option, which controls looting of innocent players' corpses [3]. The supplied context does not specify any additional details about the exact consequences of looting allied corpses or how it interacts with criminal looting mechanics.
