It's too easy for just about anybody to obtain and use one of these things. By far the lowest common denominator in the skies. Too low, and it's going to get fixed. Unless the entire drone community can demonstrate remarkable collective self-restraint and avoid any incidents which scare the 121 community. Or even the 91 community. Good luck with that.

We'll know soon enough.
What I think is coming is that all UAVs are ultimately going to need ADS-B out individually coded to the owner. It’s easily achievable:

And anyone caught flying without ADS-B on, or if their UAV is detected in an area and altitude where flying is illegal, winds up losing the UAV, some money, and three or four months of their personal freedom.
