I read the article, and it's way less bad than the title made it sound. They just set company chats to disappear after some number of days and told employees to not "comment before you have all the facts." This has been the policy of every company I've worked at, including university IT and Amazon.
The title made it sound like they were deleting specifically chats related to open court cases, which is like level 10 ultra-illegal.
