Can they so the same with the spam mail that floods your mailbox?
- ptero 9y agoUS postal service is against you on that one. I recall them suing a startup out if existence that removed spam by, IIRC delivering digitized scans that we're easy to delete in bulk. USPS got very upset for someone taking aim at spammers who are their major revenue source (really! and this is my government :( )
- vkou 9y agoUSPS makes deals with the devil, because your government is trying its best to asphyxiate it. They are in a budget crisis, which is entirely manufactured.
- ptero 9y agoIIRC USPS has been making deals with the same devil for decades, way before the current generation of budget crises started. While they are not getting all the funding they want IMO they are not using what they get well enough. Their disdain for technology and ignoring end user desires is phenomenal (send an overnight package via FedEx, see it by the minute as the package travels; send an overnight via USPS, see "no record for package" until 24-36 hrs later by which time the package is usually delivered already). This IMO costs them a lot of potentially highly profitable business. But they do not (seem to) care.
