So citizenship for a robot. That implies &#x27;human&#x27; rights for the &#x27;thing&#x27;. Healthcare, unemployment, etc. It should be allowed to vote I guess? And as citizens cannot have an owner, it is now an independent legal entity? It can go to jail?<p>So many questions, so little answers...

Hmm...<p>This gave me an interesting thought. Well, interesting to me. I give it to you.<p>What happens when Saudi Arabia gives region to a robot? I imagine it would be assigned. Would it need to be assigned a religion to work at Mecca during the Haj?<p>There&#x27;s a short story in there, somewhere.
