I realise that this question is subject to local trends (and I’m in the US), but I encourage people in other countries to submit their methods!

How do you accept packages/deliveries anonymously? Of course, there are mail redirection services, but a third party which corroborates with different parts of the chain can likely figure out your identity and what you have purchased/have incoming.

I haven’t been able to find a good solution to this yet, and I believe the new rule in the US is that the receivers identity must be reported to the government? This (or a variation of this, I don’t remember) is a recent event.

Thanks!

    I move cocaine across the border, so when I then supply it to dealers I will drone deliver from about 1km away. I have an ardupilot plane on standby circling in the air in case the guy runs off with the drugs so I can tail his car and a DJI drone which carries the cocaine itself(usually 1-2lbs). After the guy gets the drugs and the money is attached to the drone, I will start moving to as far as my drones can reach(5 miles or so) and then bring the DJI home because it’s the quickest to die. I’ll then land the plane and confirm the money is there. Overall the process takes about 1.5 hours and it’d be pretty anonymous

    I know I might not be relevant because I am not in the US (and in a big city), but I pretty much always order from online stores to the stores’ offices. Not only to not surrender my address, but also because usually they allow paying in cash upon reception (big Amazon-like aggregators are an exception but I usually avoid them), and this also does not cost extra unlike a delivery to your door.

        I am on the privacy front. I don’t read this as privacy. I read this as evasion. Sure, tons of privacy arguments in the past were cast the same way, but I consider this valid criticism.
