Why does the gov. have its nuts in a twist over a privately-owned timewasting service?
The gov. should use public forms of communication, like their own websites and mailing lists. Why endorse this privitzation of their communcation channels in the first place?
- metadat 4y ago100% agree. Even when Twitter was publicly owned, it seemed wrong to have public servants endorsing it and using it as a channel for conducting official business and communications. Why not just go all the way and post government announcements through Instagram or TikTok. Oh, yeah, that would be "inappropriate" and a "security threat". But Twitter, that one is fine, a totally different thing! :/
- sn0w_crash 4y agoTo take that even further, by using a social media channel as a means to post official communications, it becomes a quasi-governmental organization.
