Bungie recently put out a strong statement addressing the leaks that occurred after a recent Community Summit. One of the community members that attended the event leaked details about the upcoming Season of the Deep. "We take these breaches extremely seriously and are taking actions to reinforce our policies with those invited to these internal meetings," said the statement.
After an internal investigation, Bungie claims that it was Destiny 2 streamer, Ekuegan who was behind the leak. According to a report by Forbes, Bungie apparently matched desktop icons shown in the leak to those that are displayed on his stream from time to time. However, Ekuegan has denied these allegations, saying that someone is trying to frame him.

Ekuegan has maintained his stance in public as well. "All I know is, that company made a huge mistake and I will clear my name. I am working on it, Don't worry < I see the real ones on the tags.
