Who pays for so many boats? The drones are used to make the security more efficient. If the drones see migrants they alert nearby ships that turn the migrants back. If they see them drowning you can be sure they send boats anyway. It's really an efficiency solution, I'm not sure why you try to make this an evil conspiracy.

I'm not making this a conspiracy, you are. They've stated they don't use boats because drones are cheaper and don't trigger rescue responsibilities.
