    How is this different from a delivery person looking in your window when they drop off something to your house? Can a delivery person also just as easily “carry weapons, biohazards, waste”? Why would a drone want to carry those things? Why would Walmart want a drone to carry those things and cause harm, as you seem to be implying here, to their customers? A drone company can be regulated and audited to make sure privacy laws are being followed.

    Will an infraction occur with a drone? Probably. And then people will have grounds to sue and laws will be built to protect people and their privacy (I hope!).

    Drone delivery is coming - how do you want to see this tech being used responsibly?

      I don’t see it. We are now in crazyland times where the rule of law somehow doesn’t seem to apply any longer. Read the news headlines if in doubt.
