  4. It's very cruel to animals as they are harmed. This is not humanity but insanity! We believe everyone should live freely but not to be hurt.

  7. I think it has gone too far, because I don't think anyone would want to buy this, especially since most people find cockroaches really disgusting yet you're making a device that looks like a cockroach. Plus why are we playing with insects for? It's just cruel. And I wouldn't spend £70 just for an insect.

  12. There's a difference between helping humans by using animals for medicines and just using animals for these kind of stuff, It's cruel, horrible and people are just using technology to suffer other animals. Everyone would be against it if this was about a human, so why on an innocent animal?

  17. This is just AMAZINGG!!. But i still think its cruel. It's also really scary thinking about it, because if they can do this to insects, its not a matter or time until they take over the human like this.

  18. I think it's pretty awesome that you can control a cockroach via your phone. It can be useful for example in a earthquake to find people. But i don't think it's morally tight to control another living organism.

  43. I think that i i usefull by helping earthquake victims but it can be cruel for the insect as it is heavy for it

  44. controlling our own kind may seem cruel however, doing this to another specie seems ok. due to the superiority of human capabilities we are able to do whatever. we should consider life sacred it is best to build a mechanical version rather than put a device to control a living creature which takes 45 mins to put on.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I would nt buy this devise as I think its cruel and also if humans start off by controling small insects it may lead to peoploe trying to control other species which is morally wrong.

    ReplyDelete
  46. I don't think that anyone would want to buy this, because it's kind of cruel to get rid of cockroaches and control how their body should work. I don't even believe that it makes real cockroaches into cyborgs, also what's the point of having a device that makes them do what we want. To exterminate them?

    But in my view, I think that it's a great invention of technology build to kill cockroaches in a scientific way.

    ReplyDelete
  48. That is awesome havng bugs able to rescue people i believe that this is a massive step in Technological
    world

    ReplyDelete
  49. I think its a really bad idea because it is really cruel to do that to a real cockroach. I wouldn't spend that amount of money on that because it takes a long while to do it and its too much money to give

    ReplyDelete
  50. I think this technology is awesome but gross. However you can use to do many things such as pranking your friends or families. You can also use it in movies. You can use it to spy on people. I t is very disgusting but FUN!!!!!! However this is very cruel as well because you are taking control of their body. People should care about nature not kill it!!!!!!!
    So in my point of view I believe that cockroaches should not be used as a slave or something.

  51. All in all IT IS WICKED AND PHENOMENAL

  52. I would maybe buy this device but this is too expensive I mean £70 to customize a robot I mean that should be cheaper but still being cruel to this bug would be fun.

    ReplyDelete
  66. This is cruel, pointless and nasty. Why would you want to control a real cockroach? Just use a robot :/

    ReplyDelete
  67. you cant crush a roach so how do u kill it; u dont u stick on some gizmo and there u go

    ReplyDelete
  68. I just can't see how wasting 45 minutes of your life trying to controll a cockroach is beneficial to humans, maybe controlling a human or even a lion or another wildcat would be good, but a cockroach? definatley not.

    ReplyDelete
  69. i think this is funny however it is cruel if you are going to use it for pranking

    ReplyDelete
  70. Its pretty shocking people will soon be using it to spy on you

  75. This is awesome, however if you just spent 45 minutes on this and someone comes along and steps on it; there goes 45 minutes of your life.
