Swiper No Swiping!

Ok, what everyone seems to have forgotten is this is exactly how the Iranians claim to have nabbed their own purloined US drone. It must be a switch in the software somewhere, "use only GPS for navigation" or something. If it were Microsoft, that switch would of course default to ON. I would've thought other folks would do better.

What did they encrypt the control signal with? ROT13?

I've got a feeling it probably wasn't encrypted at all. People need to examine the defaults of their damned control software.
