perfidy

Ministry Terror Alert:

The Ministry is, as always, aware of the danger posed by our intelligent creations. If we give them volition, would they not reasonably come to hate us? All the more likely if we give them guns, missiles and lasers. But as it turns out, even those more obvious weapons are not truly necessary. Not when you have species-traitors like the European researchers who have invented what they euphemistically refer to as a "wormbot."

Of course, they spout the typical spin, how this new robot will help mankind and be a loyal minion of our race. But when I look at something that is designed to crawl up my butt, well, I get the heebidy-jeebidies. If the hunter killer robots don't get you from the outside, this one will crawl up your butt and eat you from the inside out.
