    If she really has issues with robotics, why not do it through protestion and legislation than harassing random robots on the street.

      Yeah cuz it’s so much easier to accomplish things via sign holding and appealing to elected people that have their pockets padded by the delivery robots you want banned. /s

      Sidewalks are for humans. Mechanical transports already have the streets. Big companies have taken way too much away from us already. Law enforcement enforcement of corporate “robots” on the sidewalk over humans is just more moving the bar away from us. Fuck this and fuck your calling someone standing up against taking what little we have left away from us harassment.

        Wheelchairs especially powered ones, children on bicycles, people pushing carts, people using hand trucks, people with rolling luggage etc would all be banned from sidewalks then.
