Could be some incel hackers from 4chan. Like people who engage in swatting would like this.

See, but even the swatters are script-kiddie equivalents. Most of the 'computer nerds' that some people in this thread are fetishizing / waxing nostalgic about were just following advice and guides of much more capable adults in the various industries. So if any smart person starts releasing guides about the drones' systems, then sure, we'll see some kids hack them, but I doubt we'll see it happen, considering the drones' rarity and limited access for most folks.
