Governments and politicians need to reach people where people are. Though I agree it is extremely important for governments to have official state-owned channels of communication; we can't close our eyes and pretend like people don't go to twitter first.
That's the situation we are in, that's the situation governments find themselves in. Due to network effects it's very difficult to get people out of these platforms so what should be done about it?

I suppose they will continue to do that as media evolves.
