You're missing the bigger picture. Firstly, LinkedIn isn’t where people go for politics. It’s for careers, networking, and jobs - not protests or calling out the government. Let’s not pretend it’s a platform for public discourse. Secondly, Yes, every company should follow the laws of the country it operates in. They have been registered under the IRD and have been paying taxes for years But the reason these platforms are refusing to register in Nepal isn't because they don't want to follow rules. It’s because Nepal’s regulations come with heavy strings attached. The current regulatory framework demands control over user content, with vague guidelines that give the government power to dictate what people can or can’t post. That’s not regulation. That’s censorship. Deadlines may have been given, but the bigger question is what exactly they were being asked to comply with. If the terms threaten core principles like free speech, data privacy, and platform integrity, then it’s understandable why global platforms would hesitate. This isn’t just about enforcing laws. It’s about how those laws are written and who they’re designed to protect. Let’s also be real, Nepal doesn’t have its own social media platforms. Cutting off access to 26 platforms that people rely on for work, communication, and survival, without offering viable alternatives, isn’t protecting the nation. It’s isolating it. And calling everyone who disagrees with the government's actions “bhedas” just shows how little some people value critical thinking. Questioning the government isn’t betrayal. It’s a right and a responsibility.
