I don't know all the details, but yes, I've seen some
discussions by people who mail 'drugs'. But if the sender
manages to mail a letter/package anonymously, then that's it.
They can scrutinize the package all they want but won't learn
much. And can they for instance x-ray all packages and know if
a package contains, say, a micro sd card? That seems harder to
do...
Anyway, my point was that presenting tor as useful and
'legitimate' because it allegedly was used by Manning strikes me
as...advertinsing.
