They want to put planes without pilots in our sky.
The gigantic dealer Amazon wants to use the non-pilot aircraft, the drones, to distribute various materials.
Drones have become popular as a war machine, after the United States has used them on several occasions to destroy their enemies. However, in recent times the road to the non-military use of drones is becoming wider. In the late summer, fire-inspecting drones were used in the United States, but we also have closer examples. In France, for example, in 2012, the law was passed that allows drones to fly, and since then it's been used for mapping, agriculture, conservation of works of art.
It appears that before Amazon many companies have shown interest in non-pilot aircraft, as they believe that they can lead to a significant reduction in distribution costs in many cases. But at the moment the problems are greater than the advantages: they have very low autonomy and we do not know how to act in case of accidents or theft.
It seems that in 2015, the law that will allow drones to fly will be passed in the United States, while France will become the testing country. Hopefully before the end of this decade there will be the first email drones among us!

In 2018, I leveraged social media and most communications from devices to try to control where I focus on life. Every day I go on that task, in the light of the moth, because my curiosity is constantly looking for fresh information to help me understand reality. At that time I... [+]
