They can't tell the truth anymore. It's all fake.
As far as I'm concerned they make everything up they put out nowadays.
Still, with postage going up to a record 55 cents, I suspect there will be less people mailing, not more.
Seriously? Everything is made up...So you don’t believe anything you read...Then where do you get your news?
I recall that a few months ago, I heard/read about use of snail mail for security since it cannot be hacked on Fox Business News...which I have on during trading hours to follow market news. A tech CEO mentioned it - and I cannot remember who...video/article Was on their website too~again cannot remember but then I was not thinking I would have to supply such information.
Sounded legit and makes sense...Esp if one has ever been hacked...For now, only the outside of the envelope is photographed. What you send is totally private...Very appealing in this day and age.
BTW, My son has MS in EE/Computer Engr. and a number of tech certifications...He works in San Jose—for a very well known tech company...He recommends an off-line computer for stuff you don’t want hacked and he gets paper copies (often mailed) of anything that is important.
I will take his advice.
Smart people bought Forever stamps long before this increase...I have stamps, bought some more last week—and I use them for cards as I think ecards are very impersonal, and for some important personal or financial correspondence when I want actual copies to be sent versus faxed or emailed.
I believe snail mail is the last bastion of privacy.
Don’t think people will never return to older technology...
My other son, has antenna TV...gave up cable altogether. Antenna TV is growing too.
So like my sons, more people may realize the benefits of older delivery methods...a sealed envelope versus surveilled and hacked email and phones...
Just sayin.
