Right. I know someone who works for a unit of government. They hated that their contact info was publicly available because I guess LinkedIn headhunters kept finding their work email and mailing them there. I think they wound up deleting LinkedIn.
But anyway. It’s public information, because it’s a public job. That’s what it is. Same reason that government websites can’t/shouldn’t say “copyright 2025 the government” because all their materials are property of the public.
