According to The Washington Post, the US Postal Service has been giving information about thousands of Americans’ letters and packages to law enforcement every year for at least ten years.
The postal service provides law enforcement with the names, addresses, and other details from the outside of boxes and envelopes without a court order.
The Washington Post, in response to a congressional probe, looked at a decade’s worth of records. Postal Service officials have received more than 60,000 requests from federal agents and police since 2015 and they rarely say no.
Postal inspectors recorded more than 312,000 letters and packages between 2015 and 2023.
It doesn’t matter if it was 100,000, or 300,000, or ten million. The government has no right to do this.
The truth is the Washington Post is not a reliable source; however, judging from the behavior of our government over the last two decades, this is likely true. If so, we are becoming a surveillance state. The government should have warrants to get this information.
It is no small matter, but Americans seem apathetic to everything. Our borders are wide open, the Progressives are destroying our economy, and nothing seems to matter.

The Postal Service, that’s USPS in a contractor to operate the Post Office, that’s the USPO. The China Man mails me a package using the post office. I try and mail the exact same package back to the exact same shipper/address. The USPS wants to charge me 5 times as much to send back as the China man paid to send to me!
Please help me to correct this disparity. My phone 334.695.5022 My address 515 county road 3330 zip 36010
Post office has been doing this a lot longer. I worked there. If a person was a “person of interest” postal inspectors would have postmaster take copies of mail and send it to them. Also their automation machines which go back to the late 1980’s make an image of every letter and store it.
USPS is photographing EVERY piece of mail, front and back, as admitted to by USPS retail counter employee.
Where is all that data going? and who is storing it? and who else has access to the data archives?
Add USPS workers to the tribunal list.. At 3 minutes per employee for their life, the tribunals should be over in a few monthes.
