prohibited by the potential for public outrage
Give it a minute little frogs, this is them initially turning the burner on under the pot. It’s gonna get warmer.

All the things the cops would want this bot to do are prohibited by rules or by the potential for public outrage; no facial recognition, no offensive capabilities, it’s basically just a camera drone. But that will change when the rules change, or when people stop paying attention… if this thing can avoid being trashed for more then ten minutes after it’s deployed.

Yeah I’m waiting for the article about it being pushed onto the tracks.

This was my first thought, too. This thing is gonna get hit by a train.
