Postal privacy is amazing (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I'm going the DIY route and I made my first HRT purchase online via diyhrt.info approved sources (mostly because my insurance sucks). I was just checking on my package to see where it was in transit and it hit me that - assuming I don't have my stuff seized at the border - the privacy around postal services is absolutely crucial for people. It's kind of assumed your packages are largely not inspected too heavily and that generally the contents are only assessed for safety and security. Without strong package privacy laws, I'm sure DIY HRT would never be an option for me and many others.

I'm super anxious to receive my first shipment.
