This makes me think about low tech solutions to the problem. What about a simple box (maybe 1 meter cube) that is unlocked until it is closed. Once closed, it must be opened with a key. A simple plate on the top can explain to the delivery man to place close the door when a package is placed inside, not very complicated. It doesn't scale to >1 package a day, but it is something.

- x1798DE 11y agoIf people are following around UPS trucks, they already know if something is in there, right? The bigger problem with the plan to me is what happens if you get two packages on the same day?
- reustle 11y agoIf someone is bringing bolt cutters to snatch your package, you have bigger problems. I guarantee most of the people doing these box snatches are looking for quick, easy victims.
