I don't think you're parsing the article correctly.
There is no allegation that the main criteria for the algorithm is "being male."
The allegation is that the human double-checking of the algorithm confirms the target is male (as opposed to woman/child.)
Not sure what the difference is given the end result?
They probably just cribbed off the US algorithm for droning people in the tribal areas and Afghanistan.
