That's the thing, we don't know. In the case where they were caught, it was to compromise SuperMicro servers in data centers for remote access.

I don't know why they're so interested in controlling the drone market. Maybe it's as simple as securing manufacturing jobs for their people, but maybe it's part of their spy program.

I don't think we should panic ban them, but we should make sure alternatives are viable so if we find a serious issue, we have a backup plan.

We do know. In order to hack a sensitive network you'd have to fly it into a secure area, have it transform into something that could type on a keyboard and hope nobody shoots the Decepticon.

This is ridiculous levels of fear mongering.
