Isn’t there a way to jam the remote signals for these?

If you know the frequency they operate on, yes. But since they are usually on a public band, jamming them is not an option. I don’t even think it’s legal.

Drone companies are creating GPS fail-safes that won't allow drones to go over restricted areas.
But, like everything, it can be hacked. But, I also have never heard of a RC operator using his hobby equipment to fly around the WH.

Probably, but like the guard dogs they have to be unleashed. Or get Val-jay’s approval after she considers benefits of WH staff martyrdom or not.

Actually, yes. No way of reliably taking over control (assuming the latest of RC control tech), but the frequencies of standard RC equipment are well-known, can be monitored, and can be jammed.

Isn’t there a way to jam the remote signals for these? They should have just launched an all-out nuclear attack on the drone to be on the safe side.
