Bezos Just Bought Your Privacy for $50k

Amazon just swallowed Fauna Robotics to drop 1.5-foot bipedal robots into your living room and I am calling the PR bluff right now. Jeff Bezos is literally selling you a tiny, metallic surveillance camera called 'Sprout' and framing it as a 'social companion.' I don’t care how many backflips this thing does or how sleek the bipedal tech is—if it’s 18 inches tall and connected to an Amazon server, it’s not a pet, it’s a high-end narc. We’ve reached the peak of digital delusion where people will pay a premium to let a robot archive their 3 AM snack runs. If you want a tiny companion that doesn’t report back to a warehouse, buy a Frenchie and hire a stylist. This isn't innovation; it's a home invasion with a 'cute' skin.
