## Summary

In a 61-second video, a silver-white humanoid robot sprints and flips onto a car roof, dents the door with a knee strike, and smashes the hood with an elbow, then stands between a knife-wielding person and a woman in broad daylight. Drawing on Douglas Rushkoff's "Survival of the Richest," in which the wealthy ask how to maintain authority over a security force after a major event, the article argues that security humanoid robots will first serve high-purchasing-power groups, that being able to fight shows they will not betray their owners, and that they are an invisible status symbol.
