Delivery Drones
Amazon has announced their intention to eventually deliver small orders by drones. Dominoes Pizza is also talking about the idea for pizza deliveries. If things go down that road we could have some very busy skies!

And, I would agree, at least for some big cities where Bubba Joe and his 12 gauge Remington don't live.
Think Drone Dynasty.

This is a bad idea. A very, very, very bad idea.
Let's just start with the simplest flaw: what if I'm not at home? The post will deliver the package at my neighbours, whom I trust. This drone cannot be allowed to, for reasons that ought to be obvious even to Bezos.
And as for his final assurance: I just don't believe him on that.

I'll wait for transporter technology. I doubt many would want this and I am a Prime member. Also how do you get the delivery container back to them as it would have to be customized to fit the drone ? What if the drone crashes with your item ? What if it is stolen before you pick it up ? And just to be super paranoid and crazy what if terrorists hack one to deliver a bomb ? I think it is all a publicity ploy for the holidays and will never happen. I am still waiting for my flight jet pack and flying car we were supposed to have by now as well as world peace.
