I wouldn’t expect bots like that to not have cameras installed. Don’t know how someone thought they could get away with trying to steal one
It's not the smartest people who do that stuff
Isn't it funny how they observe the streets with their cameras 100% continually and everything gets stored on their servers, and at the same time they celebrate their alledged policies of never doing exactly that.
I think we are likely moving in the direction of a surveillance state, but not in the way that the UK or China do it. The State won't spend billions on an extensive network of cameras and sensors, they will merely write laws that require private companies to hand over any footage deemed relevant.
This is already happening with companies like Ring. It makes sense when I think about it, because it saves billions of dollars and offloads all the infrastructure management onto the private sector while still reaping the benifits.
I hadn't really thought about it like that until now. It is like a distributed surveillance network with almost zero cost and overhead, scary.
It's been the strategy for decades. Facebook is also very useful to determine someone's social graph, whereabouts, interests, etc. You don't even have to have a Facebook account, if someone uploads a picture of you, they'll create a ghost profile.
Are we going to get robot footage that also show police abuse?
The robots will all conveniently malfunction then.
- Always spray paint the cameras first
- At the very least wrap them in foil and place them in a faraday cage before disabling the GIS.
- If the robot got away how is this a theft?
Now solve an assault against a person!
Is this the start of the robot uprising?
Smash them all. Delivery robots are anti-human devices and should be dealt with as hostile technology.
The problem isn't the robots, robots increase productivity and make life easier for humans. The problem is the corporations, which hoard the benefits of the robots to make life harder for humans.
You're angry at the wrong thing. Few people aspire to be delivery drivers.
