A nation (or corporation) with the facility to make virtually limitless armies of these things, upgradable at frightening speed, and intercapable, is limited by what exactly? Conscience? They could be roaming the streets as 'police' with no personal responsibility. I guess there are less anthropomorphic versions which might feel a little less threatening, but have more dangerous capabilities? Maybe I just feel threatened because I'm not as quick as once I was. |  |

Yeah, good point. I suppose it doesn't help that I'm listening to 1984 at the moment. |  |
