I can’t see a future where Americans don’t shoot these down
It used to be that airplanes had to keep 1000 feet of altitude over residential areas. A drone with its camera can come right up to your front door? Fly over your home, take pictures of your yard?
Amazon drone now w Flock inside!!
That’s what all the data centers are for. Every sensor in the world will be wired into the hydra; funneling all its data into mass surveillance algorithms so the fascist oligarchs can determine who is a naughty antifascist, and who is a nice brainwashed pawn or pedophile. Those who are naughty will have these systems weaponised against them. They will lose employment. They will be continuously harassed by law enforcement. They will be blacklisted by grocery stores and other vital services. Eventually, they will meet their fate with the data-center controlled, fully-autonomous killbots.
Amazon is more clever than that; it’s why they bought Ring 10 years ago. They can throw their own camera and network into their drones.
Pilot here: It’s interesting that you specify “airplanes” because that is specifically who those minimum altitude requirements apply to. The law (FAR 91.119) makes specific exceptions for helicopters.
That’s what they say, but what I hear is “free drone with every delivery.”
Can you imagine the noise of thousands of these things in the air at any given time? Fuck off bezos
How do you count neighborhoods?
If amazon sends your package via drone and I see it, there’s a high chance you aren’t getting your package. Why are you still ordering from amazon
Because Wildberry deliveries seem delayed lately.
Small town rural USA. I’m not even out in the sticks in middle TN yet some stuff is a good 2 to 3 hour drive away. I don’t even have my car dealer less than 1 hour away.
I remember when I thought this bullshit was merely reckless.
This will be a lot of fun for aviation\ATC\Medivac\police helo’s\news helo’s…
