Hmm, maybe you could have some anti-theft system if it can detect it's being "kidnapped", by recording video/audio of the thief, and transmitting GPS and phoning a security service. Although I guess you could still capture it by throwing a blanket over it and putting it in a faraday cage.

But you can still detect exactly where it was robbed, and if the robots of each restaurant chain have a distinctive shape people would know it was stolen, reducing the likelihood of reselling it.

Robot chop shops? There might be some value in reselling the batteries alone.

I am now chillingly reminded of Battle Angel Alita. Also in the live action remake the character called McTeague was a Hunter with robot dogs... this is not a good future.

Make it all a custom single piece, so even the battery is no good for anything except for this model of robot.
