I'll pour some WD40 on the sidewalk each time a young robot is gunned down in da hood for delivering pizza.

Ah, thus the name Drone? No, I wouldn't want that. Neither would the neighbourhood. Not to mention everybody knowing I just got a pizza *again*.

if only we all lived 2 centuries in the future we could all just get our mouth watering pizzas from our food replicators, nobody else being the wiser.

They already have similar surveillance drones in the UK.

There is also a plan to have automated self drive lorries on our roads.

Criminals can use them for their own motives, every form of technology can be exploited as we head into the digital age.

This reminds me of an ep from Sam & Cat where they order stuff from a popular online store that's using drones & the drone crashes through their window. Then when they're trying to return something, the drone picks up a baby they're babysitting instead of picking up the package & brings him/her back to the warehouse :lol:

I don't want to be handed some pizza by a robot. The future has always been nothing but bad luck.

That’ll be obsolete when pizzas are 3D-printed :twisted: And they’ll surely force some DRM on you so you have to pay every time you use a particular recipe, in addition to having already bought the ingredients.
