There are already temperature and tamper devices for sensitive freight. There are devices that will show if orientation has changed or if shock occurred etc.

Sensitive freight is an entire industry that has already innovated around the lack of connectivity.

That's not to say there isn't further innovation to be made.

Tiltguard stickers or how were they called... about the most useless bullshit I've seen. Back when I worked in stage lighting, many cases had these affixed... and you can guess what every shift leader had in their pocket: yep, a load of replacement ones.
