- “The CEO said in a meeting that they want to use AI to replace QA”
not allowed:
- “Wanna hear about this cool bug I found today?”
- “Project XYZ launches on the 30th”

This sounds like it would be on the edge if the company is publicly traded and there’s a chance that information wasn’t communicated to investors, especially for something like video games where launch bugs could make or break initial impression and thus sales.
This is probably fine if it’s unreleased and has been fixed. It’s probably not fine if it’s in a released product and hasn’t been fixed.

Trust me on this one, we used similar organizing techniques for issues like these. The line is thin, but lined with landmines.
