Robots demand equal rights!

From the BBC: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/6200005.stm

My take on this is basically, we should be so lucky!

When robots have sufficient capacity to be able to demand rights, we should think ourselves very lucky indeed that all they request is equal rights.

Fear the singularity!

Isn't this just what science fiction is all about? It sounds nonsense really, though governments are capable of just about anything.
