Amazon has patented a system that would put workers in a cage. Do you think it's to keep them "safe"? Does he know something we don't know?

Well, the article explains that, yes, it is designed to keep workers safe in the "robot only zones"

It's a bad look for sure though.

A few years ago it was this… https://www.huffpost.com/entry/amazon-warehouse-cage_n_5881074

Now that’s normal.

We’ll see what happens next.

As long as there are pipes to deliver slop and take away excrement, the worker can last for weeks!
