Is It Wrong To Kick Your Robotic Dog?

Is It Wrong To Kick Your Robotic Dog?
From the article:
Among those celebrating the ability to forget a pet without consequence is a national animal rights group, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

"The turn toward having robotic animals in place of real animals is a step in the right direction," says PETA spokeswoman Lisa Lange. "It shows a person's recognition that they aren't up to the commitment of caring for a real animal. Practically speaking, from PETA's perspective, it really doesn't matter what you do to a tin object."

Thanks to John Paczkowski at GMSV for the link.
