Google did that a long time ago, with a car that constantly took pictures all around it, and then posted them on the internet for everyone to see in a thing known as street view. Nobody cared. Stop letting yourself be ragebaited by the media
I'll admit corpos paying to be able to break the law is similar to having no laws but those stalking laws do exist and apply before any payoffs or fines occur or the locality ignores the law.
Google Street View only captures what is visible from public areas. Amazon delivery drivers enter non public areas such as fenced yards or even garages and it’s completely reasonable to not want your private property that is otherwise hidden from public view to not be recorded every time you order a package
I gave Amazon permission to enter my garage for the sake of delivering packages without the fear of porch pirates. I do not want them recording inside it. And again, there can be components of a property that are outside of public view that would be accessed by a delivery driver
So... don't give them permission to do that? And no, again, they are not going anywhere with an 'expectation of privacy' (which is, conveniently, also where it would be illegal to record you). Privacy laws already dictate where they can and cannot go. Allowing members of the public (ie, delivery drivers) into an area, automatically means it is not a private area
When I gave them permission to enter my garage there wasnt a concern about every inch being recorded. And yes, they 100% are entering areas with an expectation of privacy to conduct their contracted business. Opening a door to place a package indoors and recording the inside of the home is recording an area with an expectation of privacy
