True. Spot’s going to get up-armored pretty quickly, even if it’s just anti-tampering stuff instead of actually protecting against weapons.
Also, the delivery robots should be required to be safety green or orange, and have hazard stripes, more reflectors, and probably some kind of readily acessible, labelled emergency kill button.
i don’t really know the most efficient protocol, but my gut says to treat it like a cop car or even a cop: open it up with whatever is handy and take a dump inside it.
Shotguns are pretty common, even in countries with strong gun control, and I’d wager a 12ga slug to the center of mass would have adverse effect on the bot
…
So…
So how do…
How do self defense concepts apply to autonomous robots?
Idk how to even kill a burrito-delivery bot.
I don’t know about these but for that police robot in the US at least there’s already a guide.
Mind you these delivery ones look like this, a good on the top should do it.
Can always grab one straight into a mobile Faraday cage and get disassembling at your leisure too I guess. They could even be repurposed.
Remember back when you could just pop open the covers on e-scooters, flash the firmware, and have your very own e-scooter?

get it to charge and stand your ground with a spear, like a medieval boar hunt
i would like to flip it over and duct-tape over all the cameras

Lift it up somewhere high. They’re light enough that most non-disabled people could lift it up.
you can’t go wrong with aiming for centre of mass

the batteries these days are usually lithium ion so if you even nicked it with birdshot it would probably be toast
I’m gonna try a crowbar but the important question is how to take it down in a way that preserves the treats within so we may loot them and feast
