I'm the last cog in the machine between you and your mail service. I'm one of the guys who shows up at your house or your box or wherever you get your mail. Your boxes were never secure in the first place. We could have better designed boxes, with more difficult to pick locks, using more difficult to steal technologies. The point is that USPS as a government agency (not specifically as a service) does not take real, meaningful, practical initiative to keep up with the technological race. It's not that all locks are inherently pickable, or that reasonable materials for box construction are inherently breakable or stealable. The wider point I want to convey here is that the key is not the point. PSA: Thieves never needed a master key, the locks are pickable, the boxes are often easily broken through other means, or you could just steal the whole damn box if you felt like it. Informed Delivery is a waste of time, but if you like it, and USPS continues to waste their money providing it, whatever. It could get stuck to a letter that was missent to California and ends up going to Texas because I don't know. It could have been chewed up by a machine and will need to be found and stuffed in a "We're sorry" bag. If your Informed Delivery photos were taken at SF Hub's intake, it could have been missorted to the wrong city or the wrong zip code. If you live in the South Bay area, you are currently part of USPS San Francisco District (San Jose was formerly part of Oakland District but was transferred during the previous PMG's tenancy). The photos they take of your mail could have been taken at any point in the logistics chain. The day I heard about Informed Delivery (about 3 months prior to its deployment) I knew immediately that it would be bullshit. It's pissing you off right now that I'm telling you it like it is: We can't track letters. Prove me right: It exists purely to piss residents off. Lmao, downvote a mailman telling you the truth about Informed Delivery.
