I think most of you are missing the point of the title (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Modest_Proposal). His suggestions are not meant to be taken seriously, and as others have pointed out, it is quite likely that TPB's suggestion may not be entirely serious either.

It might be worth considering that the whole reason they put forth the idea of drones or LOSS or however you want to define them was to a) inspire technologists to consider creative ways of dealing with draconian policy/enforcement, b) draw parallels between the projection of power manifested by drones operating in US interests overseas under questionable/controversial legal circumstances and their own situation.
