    With Amazon steadily speeding up its shipping options -- there's free same-day shipping in plenty of cities for Prime customers, for example -- it was only a matter of time until it started looking into other ways to complete orders. According to The Information, the smart lock company August and the connected garage door firm Garageio, both of which have ties to Amazon, are reportedly looking into ways to let delivery people leave packages in your home when you're not around. And while it sounds creepy at first, it could be useful for plenty of Amazon customers who can't receive packages at work, and who don't have the privilege of living in a building with a doorman.
