TheEvilDog:
That just pretty much explains why I don't believe that Roko is actually a cop. She's making so many mistakes, doing things recklessly and without forethought.

That the shop is still open probably indicates that the local police are fully aware that it exists, but because people and AI aren't in any real danger, they might turn a blind eye to it, or might be told (or bribed) to leave it alone. In their eyes, it might be a case of starting something that will only get worse before it gets better.

And comic is up. CW knows that Roko has wasted her efforts, nothing she can see can be linked to illegal activities, save for some OSHA failure. All she has done is made an already wary person know exactly who is watching her.

Method of Madness:
Corpse Witch basically admits to Roko that she's bribing at least one person far higher up the chain of command than Roko is. Interesting tactic.

jheartney:
So will Corpse Witch crab them out for letting May lead Roko into the place, or will she think that having May there as an obvious innocent recipient of services helped throw Roko off the scent? Tune in tomorrow...

Roko really is an amateur; why skulk around neighboring buildings with binoculars when you could just go undercover as a fight club fan? I should think an investigative AI would have built-in video recording capability to record whatever she saw. (Though apparently it's hardly necessary; videos of the fights are up on YouTube.)

Rubbing Roko's nose in it, more like. Roko will either give up or become even more determined. If the former maybe Roko will end up going into the ring for money.

Carl-E:
Love the title. 

"Player piano?" 

"Play yer own god-damned piano!" 

Corpse Witch is on a (piano) roll.  Hitting all the right notes, as programmed. 

And of course Roko is the one that got played. 

Morituri:

I hope one of the jet-powered flying roombas we haven't seen in a while has acquired a webcam and makes money taking videos of the fights to post to youtube. 

'Cause the perspectives would be awesome, that's why.  Shaky-cam annoys you?  Here's jet-powered indoor flying cam!  There's no way something like that could have a stall speed under 80mph, and if it's maneuverable enough to stay indoors, I just gotta think the video perspective would be ... interestingly dynamic.
