We are not talking about one of the geniuses here at HN. The guy answering FOIA requests for the city is the IT equivalent of the counter person at a McDonalds.

- NegativeK 3y agoThat's not how access to email content should work at any organization, and I can personally tell you that responsible government organizations don't give it to entry level employees. Discovery and FOIA-equivalent requests that I've seen at the SLTT level were handled with the care that is expected for potentially sensitive communications. I'm sure smaller orgs can't do it as well, but Seattle is probably going to have some money for this stuff.
