Behind every robot is a very special programmer with needs.
What will it buy next? some special nano type cocaine to boost his batteries too? Beware : The suspect is high on Ecstasy and is wearing a baseball cap and Diesel jeans, traveling with a Hungarian passport.
I guess you blame the robot when the shit hits the fan or you call it art. ^Ha ha ha^

Robot with $100 bitcoin buys drugs, gets arrested

This is the curious story of how a robot armed with a weekly budget of $100 in bitcoin managed to buy Ecstasy, a Hungarian passport and a baseball cap with a built-in camera—before getting arrested.
The "automated online shopping bot" was set up in October last year by Swiss art group, !Mediengruppe Bitnik, as an art installation to explore the "dark web"—the hidden, un-indexed part of the Internet.
