Orwellian clip shows dystopian robot horror that has become new normal in crime-plagued Los Angeles
Los Angeles is now so rough tech companies are buying dummies to use as fake homeless people while testing their new delivery robots. The wheeled devices have been filmed maneuvering past mannequins sprawled on the City of Angels' grimy sidewalks while being tested by food delivery firm Serve Robotics. In the latest footage, a stunned witness shared a clip of the device after catching Serve Robotics engineers testing their device on the sidewalk. But the witness quickly realized the dummies were a good idea - because in real life the little robots will regularly have to maneuver LA's thousands of vagrants. 'My mind went straight to, yeah they better learn how to dodge all that,' he said. 'It's more important to be safe and go around and dodge lawsuits.' The footage circulated across social media as people were left in awe at what passes for normal in LA in 2025. I seriously can't believe this is real Tech workers are out testing and training delivery robots in Los Angeles California to avoid homeless people on sidewalks Tech worker 'testing in progress' with homeless dummies setup for the testing And Gavin Newsom wants to be President — Wall Street Apes (@WallStreetApes) July 16, 2025 After the clip went viral on X, users mocked California's Democrat leaders for allowing the state to require homeless-dodging robots. 'Instead of (Governor Gavin) Newsom and (LA Mayor Karen) Bass addressing California's homelessness crisis, they're spending money on teaching robots to simply go around,' one X user remarked. 'It's like patching a leaky roof by redirecting the rain rather than fixing the hole.' Another said: 'Instead of cleaning up the homeless situation, we've decided to get a robot that goes around them. Whose brilliant idea was this? Newsom or Bass?' A third joked: 'Why do people watch dystopia movies? Bro just move to California.' California has emerged as the homelessness capital of America in recent years, with many flocking from across the country to enjoy its lenient policies and warm weather. In a shock report from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in 2024, it was found that the number of homeless people in California increased by over 30,000 in just five years. While California struggles with 187,084 homeless individuals, New York follows with 158,019, then Washington with 31,554, and Florida with 31,362. Between 2021 and 2022, California spent a staggering $7.2 billion on its homeless population, according to a HUD report from 2022. This equates to $41,000 per vagrant, with the total spent on homelessness in the state over a five-year span reaching over $24 billion.

Meta shareholders sue Zuckerberg, Thiel, Sandberg for $8bn over FTC fines
An $8bn trial brought by Meta Platforms shareholders against Mark Zuckerberg and other current and former company leaders kicked off on Wednesday over claims they illegally harvested the data of Facebook users in violation of a 2012 agreement with the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The trial started with a privacy expert for the plaintiffs, Neil Richards of Washington University School of Law, who testified about Facebook's data policies. 'Facebook's privacy disclosures were misleading,' he told the court. Jeffrey Zients, White House chief of staff under Joe Biden and a Meta director for two years starting in May 2018, is expected to take the stand later on Wednesday in the non-jury trial before Kathaleen McCormick, chief judge of the Delaware chancery court. The case will feature testimony from Zuckerberg and other billionaire defendants including former chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg, venture capitalist and board member Marc Andreessen, and former board members Peter Thiel, Palantir Technologies co-founder, and Reed Hastings, co-founder of Netflix. A lawyer for the defendants, who have denied the allegations, declined to comment. McCormick, the judge who rescinded Elon Musk's $56bn Tesla pay package last year, is expected to rule on liability and damages months after the trial concludes. The case began in 2018, following revelations that data from millions of Facebook users was accessed by Cambridge Analytica, a now defunct political consulting firm that worked for Donald Trump's successful US presidential campaign in 2016. The FTC fined Facebook $5bn in the wake of the Cambridge Analytica scandal, saying the company had violated a 2012 agreement to protect user data. Shareholders want the defendants to reimburse Meta for the FTC fine and other legal costs, which the plaintiffs estimate total more than $8bn. In court filings, the defendants described the allegations as 'extreme' and said the evidence at trial will show Facebook hired an outside consulting firm to ensure compliance with the FTC agreement and that Facebook was a victim of Cambridge Analytica's deceit. Meta, which is not a defendant, declined to comment. On its website, the company has said it has invested billions of dollars into protecting user privacy since 2019. The lawsuit is considered the first of its kind to go to trial that alleges that board members consciously failed to oversee their company. Known as a Caremark claim, such lawsuits are often described as the hardest to prove in Delaware corporate law. However, in recent years, Delaware courts have allowed a growing number of these claims to proceed. Boeing's current and former board members settled a case with similar claims in 2021 for $237.5m, the largest ever in an alleged breach of oversight lawsuit. The Boeing directors did not admit to wrongdoing. Sign up to TechScape A weekly dive in to how technology is shaping our lives after newsletter promotion The Meta trial comes four months after Delaware lawmakers overhauled the state's corporate law to make it harder for shareholders to challenge deals struck with controlling shareholders such as Zuckerberg. The bill, which did not address Caremark claims, was drafted after the state's governor met with representatives of Meta. Most publicly traded companies are incorporated in the state, which generates more than a quarter of the state's budget revenue. Meta, which was reportedly considering leaving Delaware earlier this year, is still incorporated in the state. Andreessen Horowitz, the venture capital fund co-founded by Andreessen, said earlier this month that it was reincorporating in Nevada from Delaware and encouraged other companies to do the same. The company cited the uncertainty of the state's courts and referenced the Musk pay ruling. Andreessen is expected to testify on Thursday. In addition to privacy claims at the heart of the Meta case, plaintiffs allege that Zuckerberg anticipated that the Cambridge Analytica scandal would send the company's stock lower and sold his Facebook shares as a result, pocketing at least $1bn. Defendants said evidence will show that Zuckerberg did not trade on inside information and that he used a stock-trading plan that removes his control over sales and is designed to guard against insider trading.
