Pirate Technology

For all that bad stuff that bad people use.

Weapons

• palmers, unmarked and with the 'warning squeak' function disabled
• "hedgehogs," physical missiles bearing thermonuclear warheads, surrounded by rods that pulse radiation after detonation. Physical missiles of this type are extremely unusual, having been superseded by laser fire and entropy packets.

Other Technology

There's probably a fair bit of it in In Extremis.
