    Nothing. It’s just a game of chance at this stage given how many intermediaries are necessary between where you order something and who needs to know where to deliver it. Each step in that long ass process can eventually fail. It takes one to get your information out - and in this case it’s not like you can move or change your name as a measure compared to when some online only service fails you.

      anyone else old enough to remember when the great promise of the internet was disintermediation?

      good times

        Sure do :( Even professionally I remember times where accountability meant something and it was not diluted across 20 parties. Fucking shame.
