I don't like that comment with the picture. That is my opinion...
I gotta to be honest with you, that prothestic foot reminds me of a robot. Not saying that it makes the person a robot but by looking at it, I am reminded of a robot.

The OP brought up this question on why do some people in the Deaf community call people who have CIs robots so it is nice to discuss it here and learn from each other. I think this can be an interesting debate...
