A man in Hong Kong has built a robot that looks and acts a lot like Scarlett Johansson ... see: Mirror Story. Why do I post this reference? Because I would like to raise a new issue driven by this evolving technology -- does not an individual own one's own persona? Can a robot builder steal our looks, our voice, our personality, our body image without consequences? These questions will take on a greater significance as this technology of humanoids proceeds apace. Can we register our bodyrights with the government to keep these obsessive image stalkers from effectively stealing ourselves for themselves?
