I don't want my government spamming my inbox with updates. I don't know how active government Twitter accounts tend to be but I suspect there are plenty of things that are significant enough to announce via some platform but not significant enough that they merit an email.

RSS would be great and I fully support governments using it. But sadly in this day and age it would reach significantly fewer people than Twitter.
