If you read the article, I think the most interesting point was, if LE request a mail cover check then you are essentially being monitored for minimum 30 days up to a maximum of 120....would this make you safe to order to a burnt address after this time frame?

yeah nothing we didnt already know, if its connected to the internet and not routed through tor it goes on your permanent record. The caligirl investigator went straight for the amazon account to check for packaging supplies, its safe to say amazon/ebay/facebook/goole/creditcards/bankaccounts/contractphones/isp are all working together to turn us into little profit generators and slaves to the state.

As hhaaooooo already pointed out, its been common knowledge for a while that USPS photographs every piece of mail.

The one thing I just realized though, that I havent seen brought up before, is that this could easily be used to monitor addresses to which they havent actually found drugs addressed to. Lets say a vendor you've been ordering from gets busted, or even has LE order a single package from him. They could go back through the images and find any addresses that had similar packages delivered there in the past. Some vendors, at least used to, use pretty obviously labeled packages (I'm thinking BV for anyone that knows). One package gets caught, and suddenly they can just go back through all the images and flag any address that had those really obvious packages delivered.

I don't plan on sending ricin, so I'm not worried.
