This was actually an issue in /r/pebble, that Pebble staff members were deleting negative posts, or posts leaking information about new Pebble hardware.

Okay, that first one is scummy, but the second one is fine.
Every company wants to avoid information leaks, and they've found a way to shut down one major source of leaks about their product, good for them.
But when they start silencing those with negative or balanced opinions about their product, now we've got a problem.
