even the name is too much imo, when i delivered pizza some places had their system like this, i don't like strangers knowing that. it's too personal.

the picture is really, really too far. only the most utter HOA boomer could even potentially spin needing to know that. and you can of course imagine the issues with it.

Lmao, wtf? Amazon and Bezos can get fucked, but some of the takes here are just unhinged.

In the States, teens are getting shot at just for pulling into a driveway to turn around. This shit is a straight up safety measure for all parties involved.

USPS/Fedex/UPS don’t share location, name or photo and you don’t see a lot of them getting shot. I drove for Amazon for 6 months or so. Most people know when they are expecting a delivery, especially from Amazon.

There is absolutely no way sharing a photo of the driver would increase safety for anyone. Anyone shooting at the pizza guy at the wrong house or teens turning around in the wrong driveway aren’t going to pay attention to a photo.

Amazon should, IMO, return back to an estimated delivery window. It is more than the other big delivery companies offer already.
