I got my information from the article about the new social media rules within that article here:

https://kathmandupost.com/national/2023/11/10/cabinet-passes-rules-to-regulate-social-media

the relevant passage:

The new rule also bars any post promoting wrong activities such as child labour, human trafficking, child marriage or polygamy.

so for nepal human trafficking and polygamy is in the same category of "wrong activities".

What do you mean its not the point? its literally a crime to post "vulgar" language, like you said a catch all term that they can use to censor anything they deem "vulgar". How is this not a law designed to censor?

For clarity, I am not the person you replied to, I wrote the comment above. Imo Usernames are a bit hard to see on some frontends!

in nepal posting in "vulgar" language is also forbidden by law, as is stuff like stating that you are poly on social media, so them passing another overreaching censorship law is no surprise.
