Amazon.com darf Flugdrohnen in Texas außerhalb Sichtweite fliegen
Amazon.com hofft, in Texas bald deutlich öfter Pakete mit Flugdrohnen zuzustellen. Dabei hilft die neue Genehmigung, auch außerhalb Sichtweite zu fliegen.
@heiseonline spoiler: they never will do more than 1% of their deliveries in texas that way.
but it looks sooooo innovative to invest in such crap!
@cegorach @heiseonline But they may be able to charge a premium for that, at least for a while.
@newstik @heiseonline don't even think this is about surcharges
this is a purely "the CTO likes this hype" thing, designed to raise stock prices.
@cegorach @heiseonline Sure it's a play for stock price as well. That's the management's job. They (broadly speaking) are supposed to (lawfully) do what owners want them to do. And stock price is a proxy for that.
If starting horse drawn carriage deliveries raises the stock price, they have done a fair job. :-)
