Mail fraught. Postal inspectors need warrants to search inside of Americans’ mail, but gathering information from the outside of packages and envelopes is fair game. Turns out, law enforcement has used this loophole hundreds of thousands of times in the last decade, postal officials told Congress.

Postal inspectors say they provide the information only in limited circumstances, but in practice, the numbers show, they rarely say no.
