Have you seen these missing robots? In China, 12 robots were “kidnapped” from a robotics showroom by … another robot. CCTV video shows the robot thief breaking in and convincing the other machines to quit their jobs. The viral moment was just a test but still gives me the willies.
⚠️ Traveling overseas? No bueno: There’s a terrifying new trend happening all over the globe: Kidnapping tourists for ransoms. A Venezuelan man, for instance, used a dating app to lure in three American tourists over a month-long stretch in the Dominican Republic. He’d arrange a date, pick up the person in his car, and then an accomplice would hop in to help him restrain his dates. All three victims were held at knifepoint and forced to call friends and family for money. So scary.
