    If they're equipped with cameras and heavy fines/jail sentences it might help...Just like fuckin with people's mail boxes - federal offense punishable by jail time

    They're already equipped with GPS so location plus a face would make it somewhat feasable to charge someone I'd think

    Not sure amazon even needs drones.

    I ordered something Sunday morning and got it Monday morning.

    NFL.com on the other hand... I ordered something on cyber monday and still dont even have a "processing" email. lol. Got a good deal though. $85 hoodie and $15 skull cap for a total of $55 with free 2 day shipping. Look for me at the upcomming Monday night bears game, hottest stud there!

    I hope your right bro, I don't like this idea one bit even tho I'm buying off of amazon every week. It's amazing what money can get you tho, and Amazon corp has lots of it...

    It's a neat concept and probably the future but this is a LONG way from happening.

Privacy will be out the window, pretty much already is..
    Yes. The issues surrounding drones is already a very hot topic.

    Not to mention all the UPS/fedex/usps drivers who would be out of a job. I realize I sound like an old person scared of the future but sometimes the change will be so drastic that you can't help but be a little scared.
