Effectively, the entire internet is privatized. To put another way, it is impossible to access those government websites without using a private service.

And since the government does not provide an email system, you still need to use a private service to access those public resources.

Unless you contact them through USPS, which is a public service.

See the aforementioned "you can only access some government services via the internet" statement.
I dont think this is mostly true. All government services I have used recently are accessible without the internet.

It is highly inconvenient without the internet, but not required.
