  "account": "A 16-year-old Twitch livestreamer named Agaamuza has been using a $5,000 robot from Unitree to walk around Cologne and bother people outside of bars. In a recent livestream, Agaamuza or one of his friends used the robot to grab a girl's buttocks, causing laughter from the boys in the video. The police got involved after the incident, and the incident was reported as a mysterious robot grabbing a girl's buttocks and performing thrusting movements. However, the robot's capabilities are well-known, and the incident is not unusual, as similar behavior happens frequently on Twitch. The robot used in this case is the Unitree R1, which is a $5,000 robot that can perform various actions like walking, dancing, and even cartwheels.",
