There should already be checks and rules in place about how departments discuss outside their respective department. This is a whole new level of censorship and control beyond that.

Plus, a complete gag order on all employees on social media is not the norm even for major companies. They usually have a set social media policy in place to allow employees to post, especially material that is beneficial to them, but even other material as long as it comes with a "Does not represent the views of my employer" tag. 

So you will say that there is no company that have a total control over about employees not posting company information and keeping their personal accounts for their personal subjects?

"Not the norm" literally means "in less than a dominant majority of cases".  That's absolutely not the same as saying "there is no company", so it is illogical to restate the claim in this fashion, and can only be interpreted as an inept attempt at a straw man argument.  At the same time, you also draw an unjustified equivalence between proprietary information owned by a private company and scientific that are facts already publicly available.  No rational person would say these things.
