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?

Depends on the industry and company. Note that you started your post with "any" and are now moving the goal posts so to speak. 

There are certain bits of private information they will be restricted from talking about at nearly all companies. That's natural and has a legal basis. Like I said, most companies have a social media policy in place that covers their own needs.

On a side note, you know the EPA aren't a private company, right? Tax payer funded research is for the public, not proprietary. A gag order of this scale is ridiculous and disproportionate.
