So what.
And you didn't really address my points, especially the fact that it is safer to physically mail stuff.
Are you aware that all mail in the US is scanned at central points and subjected to a fairly high level of scrutiny. Anonymous mail is more highly scrutinized.
I don't know all the details, but yes, I've seen some discussions by people who mail 'drugs'. But if the sender manages to mail a letter/package anonymously, then that's it. They can scrutinize the package all they want but won't learn much. And can they for instance x-ray all packages and know if a package contains, say, a micro sd card? That seems harder to do... Anyway, my point was that presenting tor as useful and 'legitimate' because it allegedly was used by Manning strikes me as...advertinsing.
