It is true though. They want to be the only distributor of goods in the world, thus Buy n large.

With that being said, they are moving into many other areas outside of selling goods. The control information through the ownership of news outlets and data with AWS.

They are full steam ahead with AI and the only thing to hold back AI will be humans. Thus we need Umbrella level tactics for extinction events.

But not me.


I've lived in places where this would make sense. But I still wouldn't trust a stranger to come into my house, or a lock that could be hacked. I'd rather just pick up the package on my way home from work.

you do realize that there is a huge difference between a person that is willing to break into someones home, knowing that what they are doing may get them killed and likely for only a few bucks, as opposed to someone sitting behind a computer ordering shite online with your credit card # knowing they will likely never be caught.



I should have been more clear. I was just comparing the availability of the information, not equating the person in Eastern Europe stealing your CC info to a criminal that would be stealing your tv.

We had an Amazon driver deliver a package at 8pm last week. He literally drove his late model Mercedes car across my front lawn, right up to the front door. I wasn't home but my wife said the dogs were going nuts and by the time she got to the door he was motioning to the porch where he left our package. He then busted a u-turn across the other side of the lawn to the driveway and left. frick Amazon and their shitty contracted drivers, bring on the drones!

That would mean she switched teams on me. And neither one has that appeal. But stranger things have happened.

Well let's be fair. This is a 100% voluntary opt-in deal.

They aren't/can't force anyone in to it.

It is not really “intruding” if one is stupid enough to give them a key and permission.

A lot of people ITT don't realize how easy it is to pick a lock. Your current lock can be "hacked."
