This is a great opportunity.....

For chinese hackers to remotely take over the dogs and wreck a competitors datacenter or russians to hack the dogs, attack some humans and influence an election.

And data centers become a more valid military target, when no civilians work there anymore.

Really, only the normal, moral, working and voting citizen is left behind feeling helpless

@xro @nyrath If all it takes to disable a Waymo is a road-cone, then I'm pretty sure there'll prove to be a simple way to confuse or disable these robots... No need for anything as sophisticated as a Chinese hacker!

The question is: when encountering an obstacle, the robodog will

a) halt in place
Or
b) spray the area with machine gun fire
