It would be a shame if someone signed these email addresses up for a bunch of gay porn sites

Because it’s time that could have been used causing real damage to them?

This is not the way. You take these addresses and report them in states with anti-abortion trafficking laws.

That's the harmless fun part. There are more meaningful ways to use this list but the rules of this instance prevent me from sharing them.

I just looked at their website, there's no sign up, unfortunately. You can email them, but that wouldn't work for this project.

I love that we're supposed to pretend this is "doxxing". These are public government work-email addresses! Our taxes are paying for the chaos and destruction they're doing...

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.

Oh, hey erm71 seems like a username that could go back in time quite far. Is it that old news that name being tied to musk? If not, anyone know a data broker?

1971 is Elon's birth year. Kinda stupid to put it in his email address against government protocol, imho.

The Verge claims it is Felons email address.
