Sure thats a possibility, but of course cameras can be made very small
so that its potential as a bomb is at least minimized. Ideally, should one
side start to make bomb-bots disguised as cam-bots, another cam-bot would
catch the act on video, demonstrating to the world which side the bad
guys really are. Transparency has to be both ways. spike
