In our recent post (https://british-gazette.com/blue-skin-android-bsa/) we suggested that it should be made an offence to deliberately disguise such a machine as to appear to be a human. This could include dressing the machine in a burqa (as above) complete with gloves.
At the moment humanoid robots do not resemble human beings in appearance. However certain life size female dolls aimed at the consumers of sexual products do resemble human beings although they are easily distinguishable and could not be mistaken for an actual woman. However, this is not always going to be the case and it is only a matter of time before such machines could be virtually unrecognisable in the manner portrayed by the actress Sherry Jackson who played the android Andrea (below) in “What Are Little Girls Made Of,” in episode seven of Star Trek Season One (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_Are_Little_Girls_Made_Of%3F).
Before that time, humanoid robots will be literally “out and about” and is its entirely possible that dressing one in a burqa will be a very effective disguise. Furthermore, due to the heightened level of woke political correctness it is extremely unlikely that any person would dare challenge a burqa clad figure suspected of being a humanoid robot for obvious reasons!
