As an employee of the government there is the presumption that you are knowledgeable of your role, and that said role is charged with upholding the founding document of your organization.

For example, a teacher hired at a school cannot argue that they could not be expected to teach.

Much in the same way, a government employee cannot in good faith argue that they cannot be expected to uphold the constitution.

By secretly colluding with private companies (that the government has failed to regulate, I might add) to suppress otherwise constitutionally protected activity government employees are criminally liable
