100% expected.

Here's an idea, don't launch these services in low trust, high crime places. In California, people can walk into a fully staffed Walgreens and commit blatant theft with no repercussions; a poor robot out in the world stands no chance.

This is why we can’t have nice things.

These were never nice things.

Until the robots become sentient then fight back?

don't even need to be sentient. just mount a rail gun on a Spot and then we're off to the Skynet races 🤖

I really loath thieves, but that's fucking hilarious.

My brain assumed from the title that this would actually be about robot porch pirates now prowling the neighbourhood. I'm thankful we're not there... yet.

These robots are a hazard and a nuisance to the pedestrians. I won't shed a single tear for these tincans on wheels. I would not order one of these either.
