> Amazon proposal to deliver packages inside your house Wasn't this just to prevent assholes from stealing packages from your yard/door/...?

  Yes. I believe they shifted to putting it in your car in driveway

    Pretty much my experience, ups and FedEx at least put it on my porch where it is sort of hidden. Amazon leaves it in plain sight on the driveway..... like guys no....

      In my case the vast majority of amazon packages are ups, and most of the remaining are usps. Also I live in an apartment and no porch/driveway, maybe that's why I dont lose packages :)

    > I believe they shifted to putting it in your car in driveway Huh? How is that supposed to help? People aren't less likely to steal a package out of your car than out of your driveway.

      I'd be amazed if that was true. Even if the packages were visible from the road, surely the barrier of breaking into a possibly alarmed car is greater than just picking up a box from the floor.

      Yes they are. Lack of package visibility, unclear accessiblity (vehicle locks), potential of car alarms, requirement for unlawful entry, increased likelihood of occupents associated with vehicle presence, expanded threat for forensic discovery, fear of spontaneous Tesla combustion and vehicle interiors that smell of soiled diapers and spoiled milk are the biggest deterrents.

        > fear of spontaneous Tesla combustion heh.
    • sadris 7y ago
      I didn't say in driveway. I said in car.
• duxup 7y ago
  That was the selling point.
