This is actually the new big thing in China but I am not convinced it make economic sense (yet).
Is drone really much faster than transportation we have now? Remember drones flying safely require a pilot too.
This is the country that drops rocket boosters on residential areas (more than once) (more than twice).
I don’t think I’d want to be living in the areas where the rich people are getting their stuff delivered by drones.
I mean… This is bad, but it has absolutely nothing to do with the OP.
I think it’s relevant that there doesn’t seem to be any oversight for civilian safety in regard to experimental flying objects.
If a large-scale government space project doesn’t get oversight (or consequences), how much is there going to be for a shipping business?
Aaaa! China mentioned! Noo! china bad!
Hides under the bed
not China per se, but more like general lack of safety regulations bad
We could just write safety regulations and get Chinese companies to follow them when sending their drones here
I dunno, having rich peoples’ purchases dropped on my property might not be a bad thing.
and hey, free drone!
