Amazon Key - Privacy Issue?
Looks like Amazon wants to get into your home buy unlocking your front door and delivering your packages inside and leaving by locking the door once again. Why are they doing this? They are basically trying to prevent the porch pirates that steal your packages in broad daylight. This is one of their solutions to deliver your package safely. People that sign up with this get a lock and a camera from Amazon to install into their home and give one access code, that changes to how many they ordered, to the person who will be delivering it inside your home and leaving without a fuss. Amazon said that they do background checks of all their employees so customers won't be worried about them breaking into their home. However, this leads many concerned and may leave them open for this locking device to get hacked if no properly updated to protect itself. My point of view on this news is this: I don't like it. Not one bit. Call me old fashion, but wouldn't be easier for Amazon to invent a metal box, which can adjust to any size depending on the package, that can be installed into the floor and they can just deliver the package by dropping it into the box with a code that is given to you? I bet that would make a lot of customers happy, but that is just me. Read Article Here
