You can't even shake Facebook or Google that way. How do you expect it to work against a demi-god?

I think we're discussing the limitations of a fictional being. In the context of "Santa Claus is Coming to Town", I'm not sure his powers apply to the internet, being that "He sees you when you're sleeping...", but he only "... knows when you're awake." So if my incorporeal consciousness was uploaded to the internet, do you think I could spoof my online status to green, so that I'd be untraceable to Santa?

Possibly. I have seen many drawings depicting Santa being threatened by technology.

If we're building a thing, I don't think Krampus would be as limited, but his punishment wouldn't be as dire.
