I have no problem with inspections as warranted. That is not the subject of this thread.

There is a line to be crossed and our dear leaders have crossed that long ago. It is wrong. It is not warranted and it is unjustified.

You mean the USPS knows what's in the brown paper wrapped magazine? And that the pseudonym I used for the package that doesn't match the name of the other letters going into my mailbox isn't fooling anyone?

You are obviously being facetious. I suspect you have come up with the correct interpretation.

Thanks for your contribution.

Did you get any notice of what was happening, or just receive mail that was tampered with??
Always opened with the "tape" wrapped around the packages showing that it was examined in customs. It is hilarious, as I really do not care whether they look in my packages, as I have nothing to hide.

excellent news, thank you.



warrantless surveillance and data collection is against the law, though private contractors today think they are above this. Much funding comes from US the taxpayers.

Yet we have some shills here defending it, who claim libertarianism? lol.

hope your pay is worth it because forum slide is imminent. You will only have yourselves to argue against.
