Yeah, and it hardly ever comes via USPS, at least in my experience.


If it's coming via somebody other than the USPS, that just means law enforcement doesn't have to bother with those pesky laws protecting real mail.


If it's coming from Amazon, they don't need to bother with inspecting the package at all. They just need to subpoena Amazon and get the purchase records. The impact of mail scanning only applies to mail whose contents are not already revealed in electronic systems that the feds can more easily access.


Completely depends on your location.

For me it’s 95% USPS.


Definitely location dependent.

I estimate mine is about 50% USPS, 25% UPS, and 25% Amazon's own delivery service. The proportion that's Amazon-delivered has been increasing noticeably over the past year or two.
