good point, Ryllharu. hadn't thought of it that way, and i'm a bit ashamed, seems like an obvious plot device for the villains (read: Alejandro & Livonze) to exercise further control over the respective governments...

then again...

if that's what they were doing, thirty GN drives doesn't seem like enough, when split three ways, to cripple the world governments...

i suppose, thinking about it further... i'd rather see Billy and Graham develop advanced tech for the Flags independent of these "Trojan Horse GN Drives"... Bill seems like a skilled and knowledgeable enough guy to come up with something awesome... especially if the Professor left some notes on his theories and such somewhere for Billy to uncover...
