Walmart And Amazon Want To Enter Your Home

Description

Online retailers are always looking for more efficient ways to get packages delivered to their customers. Amazon's reportedly working on a new service that would allow delivery people to enter customer's homes to leave packages indoors, and Walmart has announced a similar service. Walmart's program is currently available for a limited test group in the San Francisco area. But this new convenience certainly raises some privacy concerns. Both systems allow customers to view the deliveries through a security camera, but according to one security expert, "The likelihood is the terms of service ... will deny liability for anything that happens in the context of delivery. So if a delivery person violates the homeowner's privacy while they're in the home, there's pretty much no recourse that homeowner has for that privacy violation."

  • Walmart's Website Down Again, PlayStation 5 Frenzy

    Walmart The PlayStation 5 launched last Thursday, but it has been nearly impossible to buy. The only certain way to get a PlayStation 5 at launch was by preordering it. But at least one retailer is selling PS5s digitally on a first-come, first-served basis: Walmart. The first drop of PlayStation 5 consoles was at noon ET on launch, and it promptly took down the entire Walmart web store. A resupply one week later had the same results: Walmart's whole web store was down temporarily as interest in the PlayStation 5 overwhelmed the site. Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories. After months of anticipation, Sony's new PlayStation 5 finally launched last Thursday.
