If legal it's "imprisonment" of the employee - and I feel it's hard to argue that's out of the question when we're talking about a bill that already threatens imprisonment just for users using an anonymous identity.

This doesn't have such stipultaions as far as I can tell - just any "publicly available social media platform created in cyberspace".

> Ignore the laws, get blocked

That's the idea - Nepal can exert the leverage of blocking the site, but nothing further like they could if there were employees stationed within the country.
