Three days later, on November 20, the Seko union, which represents postal workers, will stop delivering letters, spare parts, and pallets to all of Tesla’s addresses in Sweden. “Tesla is trying to gain competitive advantages by giving the workers worse wages and conditions than they would have with a collective agreement,” said Seko’s union president, Gabriella Lavecchia, in a statement. “It is of course completely unacceptable.”

Interesting that it is legal to withhold mail. In many countries that would be a crime.

They don't withhold, they just don't deliver.

Maybe Tesla even can send their employee to pick up letters and stuff. Right, nobody want to work at Tesla. Well, tough luck.

Sorry but what's the difference between intentionally not delivering and withholding? Semantics?

To me it seems pretty clear: withholding means you don't get your mail delivered and cannot fetch it yourself at the post office, while "not delivering" means just that: you don't get your mail delivered.
