jacdaniels8226 Pseudonyms? This is a 10 year old story.
Newsflash: government leaders for decades have used aliases to avoid spam & hacking,” Ian Sams, a White House spokesman, wrote on Aug. 29.
Have other government officials used aliases?
Yes. It’s not unusual for high-profile government officials to use alternate names in email addresses for security reasons.
Obama White House officials publicly addressed the use of pseudonyms in official government email addresses a decade ago. In 2013, when the Associated Press reported that Obama Administration officials were using email addresses under different names, Jay Carney, who was White House Press Secretary at the time, described it as "a practice consistent with prior administrations of both parties" that makes "eminent sense." If high-profile officials "are inundated in one account with either public emails, or spam or the like, then they can continue to use their other account for normal work," Carney said at the time
