They knew it was a nazi symbol and intentionally didn't send it to German users where it could get them into legal trouble. They said as much in their """apology""".

Sorry, but you can't say "it was an accident, I didn't know" if I catch you sneaking around trying to avoid being caught doing something.

At the very least more than one person knew what was happening, including, apparently, the person in charge of that PR message.

Given that, and the fact that no one was fired for this, it seems a lot like like they're infested with nazis to me. Hell of a lot of smoke for there not to be a fire.
