“Hi [REDACTED],
We are shipping from San Francisco, California, United States. We do not offer an option for personal pickup.
Best regards”
It’s extremely common for customers to pick up high expense items like vehicles, computers, art or other items in person. It requires little to no added work for the company, and completely negates any interdiction concerns. I guarantee customers would travel from well out of state to receive their items. Purism has neglected to act on interdiction concerns:
I suggest that this is not an accident. I charge that a malicious actor within the company has snubbed out interdiction prevention each time it has come up, facilitating interdiction for their external ties. There is no need to compromise the entire company, only the 1-2% of products going out to people that actually matter, and leveraging existing interdiction logistics systems would be the best way to do this.
My Librem came with the wrong SSD and 3 months later I was sent the right model, making me wonder if my laptop was not tempered with in the factory or after being shipped.
I feel like yes for a privacy and security oriented company this situation is not ideal.
Ok, and what does your log show? You never received the key? The key will be shipped separately I suppose but could be indeterdicted as well? Did you contact orwl?
