Am I the only one that notices the drones will provably deliver the package to an address, NOT A PERSON (are they really waiting for a signature or checking someone from inside the house gets the package?), I understand, outside the house? If so anyone can
  • Steal the package
  • Steal the drone while they're delivering (this has obviously already been said by everyone Smiley )
?
I can't see how this will work. Or have I missed something?

No, you haven't missed anything. As a lot of people suspect, they don't seem to be feasible or practical as a delivery method, and this is all most likely just a publicity stunt. There's an article in this thread somewhere about all the free publicity Amazon got from it.

What if there's a shitload of trees in your yard? Do they just bomb your house with the package?

Imagine a fleet of these things loaded with explosives and used by a foreign invader. "General did you order something from Amazon?" BOOM

In the future they should build one the size of a helicopter that can deliver generators and lawnmowers. lol
Military drones already exist and are already being used in battles 

and have very deadly impact on the world and in mind of many peoples  Wink

Reality is much more frightening than you can imagine.

It's funny that the Americans when they see something like that, they think about shooting it.
And it's not so funny that people in some countries when they see one of those actually get shot .

Well I was ironic. Of course it is not funny. That's the culture of violence that I was pointing at.


Countries like Afghanistan and Pakistan also have culture like this as peoples see thing like this try to shot  Grin

I would love to see this discussion about drones 10 years from now.
I guess nobody will be scared that time about a robot drone delivering their pizza.

Which pose the question:
Should you tip a drone?

yes I give tip to drone and I am happy service like this is coming very soon hope we can enjoy this Grin

Take it as a joke but:
Neither your name nor your English point to a person happy to see a drone hovering over his head:).

Are you thinking...what i'm thinking?  Grin






Lol. When I first heard they were using drones, I assumed they'd be those huge military ones just dropping packages like bombs in peoples gardens, not these tiny little things. I've seen bigger toy helicopters and planes.
