If you stream footage of a robot, wearing a wife-beater, dookie-rope and a mustache: grabbing a girl's ass and making humping motions afterwards; I think it's safe to say what the intentions were... This has to be dumbest shit I've read in a while haha.

This will probably be an interesting case from a legal perspective. Let's leave it at that.
Not really. Sexual assault is pretty cut and dry in most countries. It doesn't matter if you use a tool to commit the assault, it's sexual assault.
It was remote controlled. So not really interesting
That headline is way too good to read the article. I shall remain unenlightened by its contents and a little disturbed that robotkind now understands and desires the feel of a soft boob.
