If you use a personal email account for government communications, you
potentially open up that email account to government examination in
instances of litigation discovery, audits, or Public Information Act
requests. But this is not where the issue ends – by using a personal email
account for government business, it means that your government’s official
records are being stored on mail servers that are beyond your government’s
and their IT department’s control. They don’t know where the data is being
stored and they have no way to back up the data, archive it for retention,
secure it from unauthorized access, or dispose of it once the retention
period is expired. You might have agreed to follow Gmail’s terms and
conditions, but they certainly did not agree to follow yours.

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of
laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the
umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
