Coming from 3rd edition, Riggers didn't have half the problems they now face with Hackers hijacking and disrupting the control of their Drones.

For starters I'm not even clear how the process begins to have your drones tampered with. Does the Hacker have to hack into your Commlink first or does he just hack into the Drone itself? Does the Drone have to be somehow loaded onto the Matrix or can you be in a dead zone with no AR or hotspots around and still just directly control the Drone (Not rigging it) with your Commlink?

Finally, are there any methods to use some sort of laser/alternative form of broadcasting that wouldn't be picked up by normal Signal Hacking?
