U.S. Postal service admits that they photograph all mail they process

http://j.mp/10YFO3o  (The Smoking Gun)

    Postal Service computer system that "incorporates a Mail Isolation
    Control and Tracking (MICT) program which photographs and captures an
    image of every mail piece that is processed."

Surprise level: Nil.  I'll admit, however, that this must be very
useful to track down terrorist cells that plan their attacks via
postcards.
