So if someone asks for emails, no one should care if some of them are employees asking for medical leave? HIPAA just shouldn't apply to government employees? Emails containing complaints about harassment or assaults, the victims who complained should be just named to anyone who asks the government? Employees have to provide SSNs and banking info to HR, should that be publicized for scammers?
"The Government" is also a workplace, and deals with all sorts of personal information on a daily basis. Their privacy is hardly "worthless," their emails deserve at least a quick sanity check before being released potentially to the entire world.
