"Many household security robots are designed for simple Internet operation, which makes them insecure. Will your humble Roomba vacuum cleaner be used to transmit naked videos of you?"<p>Does Roomba make a 'bot with either wifi or a camera? I can't imagine why they would (okay, maybe wifi.) I understand the Author's intent to make the threat "real," but this is a poor example.
