I mean, it is fair for the company leadership to decide on what is said through their channels.

I don't really see any issues with them limiting what can be said when representing their company.

However, any coworker should be able to post, comment and like what they want on their own personal social media pages without it affecting their employment.

I remember various attempts by employers to force employees to represent the brand and company at all times, that is just idiotic.

I will only accept that my employer will have me say "no comment" when asked about company opinions or details in my free time.
