Owlcity arrest, USPS Tracking and OPSEC

This is why I never track packages or give up tracking numbers to customers. Always assume you're selling to LE.

I've been warning people about tracking those packs since FOREVER! Look at what impatience has caused. Better beleive we'll be seeing less of those "Dude where's my pack" post. And a hell of alot less "My tracking seems weird bro".

So the customer can get CD'd instead..... What ever happened to the rule of NO TRACKING NUMBERS this used to be a Golden rule you would be laughed at and burned at the stake if you asked a vender for it for this reason specificly there's no real safe method of using tracking.... Hell using tor will even set off an alarm..... I have checked it once or twice but only after it showed in my USPS while I pretend like saying "I know it's weird it just showed up in my USPS and I just had to know where it came from and didn't recognize it but it sounded nice so I pretended it was mine..." Was a good excuse.... This just put using tracking into perspective for me and probably won't even be looking for it any more
