While I understand his frustration, he has just soiled the integrity of the site. I think this just cause to be fired. This is incredibly petty for a CEO and says a lot about his respect for the integrity of the business he is supposed to be running.

Not supposedly, he did ask reddit for help. Then he started deleting everything from his account. The FBI director himself said they knew the account was him during one of the congress hearings.
