That is how it works, but people shouldn't be posting their location or sensitive information publicly if they don't want it exposed like that. That's basic opsec. Private data is currently being worked on for ATProto and will hopefully begin existing in 2026.

They shouldn't, but they still could: accidentally paste in the wrong browser tab; have been stupid when they were 12 years old; have gotten drunk; or a number of other things.
