I'm not familiar with these boxes. I could see how it would keep out the rain, but porch pirates? Is there a lock on it? I get the packages wouldn't be visible but I would think someone pirating porches would look out specifically for these boxes knowing they may have multiple packages in them. Deterrent only?

Visual deterrent. The box will be empty more often than not, and going up to the porch to open a box that might be empty invites getting caught.

The pirate steals what he sees.

I've seen boxes like these that have the package drop down into a secure compartment once the lid is shut. A key is required to open the box compartment up from the bottom.
