Mail is extremely insecure, it's actually really nefarious for them to recommend it. I still use Mullvad sometimes because it's just so cheap and fast. I know it's some kind of high level NATO spyware though. Just look at where their servers are. I mean fucking come on now.
Kind of... al around the place? What do you mean?
Also, in the mail you don't send the account number, just a payment token. So the postman won't be stealing your account, just your cash at most.
Vouchers are probably the safest, but I actually like sending mail, and this is basically my only opportunity to do so nowadays.
Okay let me try again. Where are their servers conspicuously NOT located?
They can just scan and open and reclose the mail they do this to everyone now I am so serious. Difficult to do at scale though so honestly I take it back, if everyone did it the mail way it could increase surveillance costs? Escalating everyone's piracy to require forensic cracking at a federal or international level would skyrocket costa which should be a goal
