Bot Hitchhiking Across US Got Dismembered. Bad Human(s)!

And your implication is...?
Well, of course: This is Ben2World** - 'nuff said. The US is the very worst of the world's many nations! No exceptions!

As it turns out, the most likely cause of the demise of the "HitchBot" was a couple of Youtube "personalities" and perennial pranksters (Jesse Wellens and Ed Bassmaster) who were most likely playing a poorly-conceived joke.  "The people thought to have last seen hitchBOT in one piece on Friday were video bloggers from BFvsGF. You can fast forward to 7:30 in the video to see where they pick up hitchBOT in Philly."

First, there's the supposed "surveillance video":

Then there's the note at (#hitchBOTinUSA) about this fake "surveillance video"

and then:
Vloggers Faked a Surveillance Video, But Did They Destroy hitchBOT?

Aside:
When I first saw the media play on the "hitchhiking robot", I noted to myself that it wasn't, strictly speaking, actually a robot. It's more like a completely inanimate automated playback machine ("intelligent recording machine" that cannot actually move) that a Canadian university sent out to investigate "human nature" as regards "robots". Technically, not a robot. More like a trashcan with a tape recorder inside. But "robot" makes for more interesting headlines, I suppose. As does your repeated attacks on "immoral and corrupt America".


**The guy who, it seems, carries a very large chip on his shoulder concerning all things from and of this nation. Not that I sometimes don't agree, but still, his rage concerning the US is only rarely concealed beneath his otherwise chipper demeanor. Every time I see yet another of these sideswipe attacks on the US, I wonder exactly what in Ben's history caused his attitude. From all appearances, he seems to have done quite well, but he still harbors some spite.
