ICE could soon deploy Boston Dynamics’ robot dogs, a move raising concerns among some activists about surveillance, control and potential misuse.

I’m going to be getting a new bra for this. A trap for boobies is what I mean. It would be this long corridor entrance to my house with automatic doors on either end. If you are expected you open the door and come in. Otherwise if you’re a robot, as soon as you enter, both doors close and there will be a laser grid traveling from side to side chopping everything into little cubes. Or a large flame. Or maybe pointy rods shoot from bottom, top and sides and then retract.
Or maybe I would just have a 2X4 on the ready. I’m pretty sure those things can be wacked with a 2X4 easily.
Whichever is cheaper.
Don’t James Bond what you can MacGuiver.
The Boston Dynamics dogs have a number of failsafe stop modes. One of which is loss of controller connection. Which can be made from some shit from the hardware store and a circuit board you can order online.
I’ll just accumulate a big pile of bent up paperclips and when the robot crosses my gate, I’ll dump it all on it. Then as the robot waddles around, I’ll use a big magnet to clam him down while I go looking for the shutoff switch.
