… That is absolutely not all it requires. The document you linked is only 19 pages long. Surely you can be bothered to look past the first two? The platform must police itself per the rules in the document or face license revocation, and the rules are broad and have the classic ‘contrary to national interest’ out for whatever the government wants. The point of a separate platform is that nobody is going to enforce these rules globally, so it would have to be a Nepal only branch of the site.

Multiple social media networks did comply.
It’s mind boggling that half the threads are bitching about Zuckerberg wasting billions, and everyone in here is whining that it would be too expensive for Facebook to pay someone in Nepal to be their representative.
And yes, do read Chapter 12 and notice that literally only a single regulation in there is remotely problematic, and it’s the broad national interest one. Literally all the rest are just ‘respect user privacy’, and ‘respond to court orders’, and the like.
This is the main purpose of the act tho. The license can be revoked at any time if the government determines that a network “disturbs the national peace”.
That’s the point.
Also, Chapter 12.1, line (h): only allows access to the platform after verifying the real identity of a person.
