Please find in this Deadspin artical a rebuttal to the "tragedy" of Hitchbot:

While I don't agree with all of the points made here, I do agree with some of them very strongly.

I'm unable to find a single item in this post that I could agree with or even relate to. What a terrible attitude towards a fun experiment.

I agree that it was a terrible response. I expected from Deadspin/Gawker a contrarian take about how Hitchbot was asking to be destroyed because people have become justifiably suspicious of camera-equipped robots.
