Field notes
BLOOC describes a relay network built around neighborhood shops rather than street addresses. The sender supplies a recipient phone number and destination city, while the carrier groups parcels along an existing route. The stated safeguards include a photograph taken at deposit, SMS notices for deposit, departure, arrival, and collection, and a withdrawal code required at the destination counter. The extract does not expose the route-by-route prices or the actual relay list.
