And with cryptocurrency, payment to the individual
people worldwide serving as drop-couriers in an
end-to-end dropgang network become perfectly possible.
Whether unrapping layers of scannable qr-code hop-by-hop,
distributed blockchain based hop-tracking and payment
services, smart contracts, etc. Infinite options arise.
There is no "law" that can ever be against the harmless human right
to transfer a letter / parcel / datapack / physible / knowledge
from person to person, peer to peer, location to location.
Same goes for ridesharing, abodesharing, etc.
Anyone can startup such alternative delivery networks today.
Tap that app!

A single drone might be able to do it with some sort of
handle grappling, electromagnet, slide ramp, slot shooting.

Photo is not an "oppurtunity", it is an "is already done"
spying surveillance by USPS.

With hops for more valuable contents being placed outside
the human footfall traffic of the cities... in woods, parks,
mountains, water, sky balloons.
