NSA/USPS Thought Experiment

For the sake of argument, let's say that someone posted, somewhere on the Internet, the home addresses of some of the pro-police state Senators (such as Dianne Feinstein or Lindsey Graham).

And then let's suppose that people around the country began sending them mail* with return addresses that read "Islamic Liberation Front" or "Earth Freedom Jihad" or "Pulahan People's Forces" or stuff like that.**

Since the Post Office records every freaking piece of mail and since it's possible that the USPS records get merged somehow with the NSA's records, one wonders what sort of hilarity would eventually ensue. For if you got such mail, the organs of DasGov would be watching you so closely that they could tell when you took a dump.

Also, don't think that using UPS or FedEx gets you out of this database. It doesn't. In fact, if you use UPS or FedEx, both the sender AND the destination are tracked and logged in their computer systems, along with metadata such as the size and weight of the package. And don't tell me that the NSA doesn't have access to the UPS and FedEx computer systems. I got a bridge ta sell ya if ya gonna say silly stuff like that...
