I'm a professional PHP, Python and Javascript developer from the UK. I've worked with Django, Laravel, and React, among others. I also maintain a legacy Zend 1 application.
Last year I was asked to see if anyone I knew was available to help out on a freelance basis with some front end work, so I posted a tweet saying to DM or reply if they were available.
A couple of hours later a recruiter phoned me to offer to act as a middleman. Turns out he'd seen the tweet, looked me up on LinkedIn, seen where I worked and phoned reception. I found this hugely inappropriate.
