This is actually part of the so-called "bogus pipeline." Test-takers are told that the test can detect any attempt to lie, causing them to answer the questions more honestly than they would otherwise. The MMPI does detect inconsistent and unrealistically extreme answers, but it's not quite as foolproof as claimed above.
I doubt terrorist-made drones will be remote controlled for exactly the reasons you just described; the skill level required is just too high. I'd expect them to work more like cruise missiles, a hand grenade strapped to a fixed-wing plane with a crude GPS-based autopilot that simply flies straight at the target. They might miss their targets more often than not, but that's not a big problem if your primary goal is to cause terror and mayhem.
You can get pretty good results with just a little trigonometry. For example, in the diagram below, the ratio of angles A/(A+B) tells you how shaded the blue tile should be. You can apply this method recursively.
It might also have something to do with giving the impression that the game is going to be something novel, quirky or even bizarre, as opposed to another polished but bland EA title.
An iPhone battery is roughly 1400mAh at 3.7V, which gives 5.2Wh or 18720 watt-seconds. A standard power outlet in the US supplies 15A at 120V, for a maximum of 1800 watts. So if you could charge your phone using the maximum power available from a standard outlet, it would take roughly 10 seconds. A typical laptop might take about 1-2 minutes. (That's assuming 100% efficiency, which is unrealistic.)
It's about what you'd expect. When you press any key, a few characters of linux kernel source code appears, so you can randomly mash keys and it looks like you're programming at breakneck speed.
They don't use the forensic tools on everything that passes through, and an SD card full of landscape photos is a lot less likely to arouse suspicion than one full of unreadable encrypted data.
That would be nice, but unfortunately it's not really the case. It's quite difficult to make a secure distributed system that allows anyone to join (as opposed to a closed darknet).
Here are a couple examples of attacks that DHT is vulnerable to:
