What is the process a hacker would need to go through to permanently steal a drone? I see in the FAQ where a hacker can spoof commands to the drone as if coming from the owner, but what if he wants to keep the drone after he's done? I wouldn't think he would spoof it forever.

QUOTE
Note that agents and drones will only take orders from
their controlling persona, unless another persona spoofs an order
(see Spoof Command, p. 224). If the controlling character
chooses, he can instruct the agent or drone to receive orders
from other specified personas.


Could the hacker spoof a command to the drone to change the controlling persona from the original persona to the hacker? Then from there on out issue commands as if it were his?
