I don't work on or with the Reps site, but I took a quick look at the code
for it [0]. The location fields on the Mozilla Reps site are arbitrary text
fields that users can enter whatever they like into. It was the users
choice to enter this inappropriate location. This isn't a choice Mozilla
actively made, nor any developer in the system, but likely something that
the reps in question chose to enter in their profiles. I'd suggest
contacting the people in question personally and directly about this issue.
