So, what have we learned?
Well, Drake was orbiting the Dev actors and the NPC's they spawned in did not target him.
CCP now has the ability to set NPC's to selectively target.
This means that next time there is a Sansha event, TS-F can do more than act like howler monkeys in local.
Confirming CCP can tell the NPCs not to shoot you. I had was never even aggroed once during the entire course of both the angel events.
Seeing as the actors themselves weren't shot by the NPCs since sansha live events started a year or so ago, and the actors were players in game mechanics sense, they had to have that thingie to stop sansha rats from aggressing those Revneants.
As for the cyno jammer, I guess it's not worth the hassle for CCP. Actors don't have crazy faction loot, so they're not drawing PLesque attention, and cynojamming systems would prevent some people from coming and witnessing the live event DUST advertising (all the events so far included orbit to ground actions, so it's fairly obvious), thus it would be counterproductive.
