No one voted for our governments to exclusively use it to communicate on Twitter. It kinda just organically happened. Even Iranian officials use Twitter.

We had government websites and official channels, but hard and inaccessible.

I think the problem I have is the need for phone numbers and identification to access government comms through Twitter. No one asked who I am to listen to radio (even though some were commercial for-profit ventures).

I’d like to see GSA offer a US gov official Twitter of sorts for instant communication. No ID or Phone required, funded by tax payers.
