I bought some cheap Chinese 2-way radios. The packaging has a big American flag and a “Designed in U.S.A.” claim, which I suspect is bullshit given the company involved. Also, there are two Bible verses referenced. This smacks of pandering to a particular slice of conservative Americans. All I want is cheap radios for skiing with my kids next winter, not a reminder of my country’s socio-political bullshit.

Study: Packages Sealed with ‘Atheist’ Tape 10 Times More Likely to Disappear
“What’s up with the USPS? Who knows”
Oh, they know.
Fascinating case study. I hadn’t heard of this before.
That is an amazing little ad hoc study!
The word that pops up in my mind when i read this is “sabotage”
“Hence the word… sabotage.”
Honestly, should send them with AirTags or similar hidden inside and track their progress - would easily get to the bottom of who the culprits are.
Just have the recipients of the shoes return successfully delivered tags in a replay paid envelope for a refund/credit.
