Exactly. And then they went ahead and tried to get a defense contract from Pentagon anyway. In fact, about 3 months after they said that, they started wanting to sell Google Glass to the military. Not as bad as selling them autonomous robots, but still.
It just shows much little when we trust what Google says when an acquisition happens. Eventually they are just going to do what they think will make them money, regardless of what they promised.
That said, now I'm worried that an actual defense contractor will get those robots.

Why is this worrying?
If you're afraid that the military will do something evil with the robots, you're going to be dismayed to learn that they already have automatic rifles, tanks, and atomic bombs.
