Journal TheRealJFM's Journal: Eh? Bizarre comment moderation on Ovi 1

I received the following email from Nokia's Ovi the other day -

Dear arvendui,

We are informing you that we have removed the following comment from your account in Ovi Store:

Great idea, but would be better if there was a way for me to remotely enable tracking, like by texting a password. That way I could track the phone if it was stolen.

We have removed the comment since it appears to violate the Ovi Store content guidelines.

Nokia is committed to providing a safe and fun service for the consumers. Repeated violations of the content guidelines may lead to termination of the account. Please continue to use Ovi Store but please review the Content Guidelines for what is not allowed on the service.

Thank you,
Ovi Store Moderation Team

Err... what? Clearly the comment doesn't breach any of their guidelines. I've received no response to my queries about how precisely this breaches the rules, and generally the whole thing seems a bit odd. I mean, all I did was suggest an improvement for an application - surely that's normal.

Automated moderation? Bad English skills?

Has anyone else had the same problem?
