In the minds of mobile shoppers, where is the line between convenience and personal space/privacy? We now have two retailers — Walmart and Amazon, the giants of in-store and online shopping, respectively — separately testing programs to deliver purchases directly into your home or your car trunk when the shopper is nowhere near.
Both efforts rely on mobile devices connecting shoppers to the scene of the delivery, where customers can theoretically watch the delivery in real time. It isn't practical or likely, but that's the idea. Mobile is what justifies these attempts.
Does the trunk of your car really make for a more secure delivery, or is it multiplying insecurities?

You lack some basic things in your brain. Probably a prefrontal cortex problem.

Yeah, it totally lacks is the inability to place emotion ahead of reason. I must be a Nazi. Back to your safe space now, grown-ups are talking.

It puts the omega-3s in its stomach or else it gets the hose again! I'm not sure what region of the brain is tied to delusion, they probably haven't worked that out just yet. If you're so concerned about people calling you a Nazi that you'll say to about yourself then maybe it is time for some introspection. Sorry to trigger you, it was nice to have a reasonable discussion for at least a little bit.

Don't kid yourself. You were never reasonable. Only what passes for it from the regressive left.

Heh, if I'm not reasonable you're a downright nazi :P since we're going down the ad-hominem path.
