Perhaps, but then the laws are actually designed for a different specific purpose, that is to prevent the robots from doing things like killing all humans, or becoming bloody dictators. The laws are to protect humans, not to harm robots.
And my point is that this is the wrong approach. Once they become smart they will become lawyers and interpret the 'laws' any way they wish.
Oh well, in that case there is always the course of action that Shakespeare mentions in one of his plays (Henry VI, Part II, Act IV, Scene II)... <GRIN>
Know your classics, people!
