It appears that the law is full of totally BS circumventions like this, that only make sense as abuse of the spirit of the law.

Like how you're legally supposed to not have an "expectation of privacy" for your mail, because it's handed by the post office...

You don’t have an expectation of privacy for the outside of your mail, because people can see the outside. The inside of the mail you do have an expectation of privacy, because someone can’t just see the inside of your mail. Unless it’s smelly, because people have noses.
