They are adults. They work for the federal government. They deserve no privacy protections.

  I keep seeing a contradiction that I’m having a hard time explaining. On one hand, there are numerous comments saying that what these individuals are doing is illegal. On the other hand, there are comments saying they work for the federal government and so doxxing them is fair game. If they work for the government, how is what they are doing illegal?

    They don't actually work for the federal government. That's a big part of the problem. Trump has just given them access.

      I don’t doubt what you are saying about Trump giving them access. Do we know how he did that? I guess I’d like to understand how we know if it was legal or not.

        It's the other way around. It's not legal unless these people are under an executive branch department or agency, with department heads appointed by the president, and confirmed by the Senate. These people have not all been vetted, hired, and granted security clearances appropriate to the level of access they've obtained. All of this is illegal.

    Being an employee of the federal government doesn't give you access to everything. There are laws, passed by Congress, about who is allowed to do what.
