It won't be there. But if it was, no, you couldn't shoot it down.

That is amazing! Wow! Not only have tons of jobs been outsourced or replaced by technology, even deliveries could possibly be replaced by flying objects.

What if one of these things delivered your pizza the next time your ordered it? You wouldn't even need to say thank you.

Google has built and tested autonomous aerial vehicles, which it believes could be used for goods deliveries.

Google is experimenting with drones as well for natural disasters so that people can get access to medicine/supplies.

It may not be tough to drive even with drones flying around if all cars would eventually drive themselves after we enter the destination address.

Kids would have a great time watching the action though.

The [UK] government's getting together with Amazon to start testing drones that can deliver parcels to your door.
