Danish Post loses 70,000 items a year

🕑︎ - 2005-04-17

Well, it is not that I'm that surprised, actually. The article is in Danish - and says that you have to compare the number to the 4 to 5 million items they handle a day.

That is something like 1 in every 20000 items. I probably receive something like 400 items via the Danish Post every year, so there is a 2% chance that an item of mine gets lost. Is that a satisfying statistic for the Danish Post?

To avoid spam many websites make you fill out a CAPTCHA, or log in via an account at a corporation such as Twitter, Facebook, Google or even Microsoft GitHub.

I have chosen to use a more old school method of spam prevention.
