I can just IMAGINE the glee that the hackers will have when they can program
physical robots to tear people's houses apart (literally) in the middle
of the
night!

You hear funny noises late at night, and get up to investigate, and your
robot,
being controlled by some teenager in Romania, is looking for a book of
matches
so it can burn your house down! The possibilities for serious mischief
are endless!

You could build one of these now, a few arms, a couple caterpillar
treads, and a
webcam are all you need to make a really dangerous machine, if some hacker
with evil intent can get control of the thing remotely.
