− | {{w|Amazon Prime Air}} is a conceptual {{w|drone}}-based delivery system currently in development by Amazon.com. While on one level he thinks the idea is cool, [[Cueball]] worries about living in a sci-fi dystopia, with those drones flying all around him, tracking his actions, etc. In the third panel, [[Megan]] suggests sending a message to Congress, suggesting a law for making the stealing of drones legal. This would alleviate the problem of drones flying around everywhere because if they did people would catch them to use for themselves. In the final panel Megan begins to search for {{w|butterfly nets}} so they are ready to catch the microdrones when the law to make it legal to steal the drones goes through. | + | {{incomplete|New page}} |
− | | + | [[Cueball]] and [[Megan]] {{w|Amazon Prime Air}} is a conceptual drone-based delivery system currently in development by Amazon.com. Later on, [[Cueball]] worries about living in an sci-fi dystopia, with those drones flying all around him. |
− | This tactic may not work as well as planned; drones will likely simply fly higher or employ other security measures since there are no regulations on drone behavior.
| + | The title text suggests that Amazon doesn't sell butterfly nets anymore, because people can take minidrones out of the air with them. |

− | The title text suggests one of five things: | |
− | *Amazon is out of stock of butterfly nets due to everyone purchasing them to catch drones with, implying many people had the same idea like Megan.
| |
− | *Amazon doesn't want people stealing their drones, so the nets are just suspiciously "unavailable".
| |
− | *Non-Amazon individuals controlling the drones have pre-emptively purchased them all.
| |
− | *Amazon has put all of its nets into a private stock, in order to steal other companies' or individuals' drones.
| |
− | *Amazon's drones have already become self-aware, and have altered the database in order to prevent their capture.

− | Amazon drones is also the subject of the title text in [[1625: Substitutions 2]] and there are two {{w|quadcopters}} over the volcano lake in [[1608: Hoverboard]]. Also, Cueball is abducted by seemly sentient drones in [[1630: Quadcopter]].
