A retired Kansas University professor says the federal government has been poking into the mail he receives from abroad.
Grant Goodman on Monday showed the Journal-World a recent letter he had received from a friend in the Philippines; it apparently had been opened, then re-closed with green tape bearing the seal of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and a message that it had been opened “by Border Protection.”
So, add "reading people's mail" to the secret wiretaps.
Anybody in the gift exchange get mail from abroad that had been opened?
