Home owners get ring cameras to monitor their own property. There is nothing illegal or immoral about it. amazon using it for their own uses is fine as long as the property owners agree and understand it. Amazon delivery drivers already take pictures of delivered packages. I really don't understand how ring doorbells make any difference.

Besides, what do you plan on doing about it? Make doorbell cameras illegal? Good luck

cutting taxes for tax payers? who is this some you talk about? you're too much into this whole republican vs democrats nonsense. career politicians have been lining their pockets on both sides. Both have made stupid near sighted decisions. There is no good side. The reduction on brexit is a trade off. you either have preferential treatment with the EU in terms of regulations and tariffs but you give up sovereignty. On the other hand you maintain sovereignty but get screwed over with tariffs and regulations. It's a difficult choice. There's no right or wrong answer.

No he's absolutely right. Markets and market caps will decrease unless there are those two can purchase things, meaning decent wages for doing a job. So it's a race to the bottom with robotics. However, it's not totally true. Robotics will create an industry as well as maintenance for those robots. Better and more robust ones will be created. However there is a limit to how much people are willing to spend to automate vs how much you actually get from it. If your paying min wage your overhead is fairly low. If the robots cost millions then the time to recoup the cost is probably in decades which is means it's basically doa. No one will invest because there's is little to no return.

There has to be several things to make it worth while. Efficiency and miniaturization. If i could make a slaughter bot that could slaughter/process on site with little to no mess, then i could create mini processing plants near the cities themselves cutting down on transportation costs as well as scale them for need. Instead of shipping to major plants then shipping again, i could occupy space near cities, ship smaller amounts to the areas in the cities, process and ship locally thus saving huge on transportation and cooling costs. If i build these plants for animals underground and directly above use a large building above for vertical farming then i could create my own fertilizer, process everything extremely locally and also provide sufficiency to large urban populations all in one.

These types of fully automated food production buildings would be basically reused for any sort of space colony or off world colony. If they were self sufficient as well as provided output from it to feed the population, it's worth it

It's an opinion. The idea is is an opinion hate speech? Some may say yes. If you can't clearly define what hate speech is, how do you censor it? Leave it up to someone in charge to define it as they like means it's rife with abuse. Even if it's universally agreed upon to be a bad idea, why is it necessary to censor it?
