Found this in the cyberpunk subreddit in a post from 2 years ago with people complaining that people were over-reacting and it's 'just a camera on legs that will never be weaponized'. Cue San Francisco want to weaponize one a year later, also apparently Dallas used their bomb disabling robot to kill a sniper in 2016.
Here's some totally random paperwork on Spot's network setup! https://support.bostondynamics.com/s/article/Spot-network-setup
It should be noted that some versions of spot have both 5ghz and 2.4ghz wifi but should still be vulnerable to deauth attacks. Upon losing network connection for more than a few seconds the robot should sit down and turn off the motors. However, they do make an LTE capable version. :this-is-fine:
If it’s internet connected you can hack it and commandeer it. If it has an LTE modem in it, its location will be traceable by authorities at all times.
Alternately, throw some sand on it. Those joints were developed in relatively sterile conditions and are exposed. The underlying components are too fine to function with a bunch of sand in their joints.
this isn't a movie lol. Someone developing it would have to actively make it insecure for it to be "commandeer-able".
