Leaks have become an unavoidable part of following technology and entertainment. Unreleased phones appear online months before their announcements, unfinished games are shown without context, and spoilers can surface in your feed whether you searched for them or not. In this edition of the Web News, Matt and Mike discuss the recent leak of alleged GTA VI gameplay footage and whether leaking a game is ever a reasonable form of protest. They also explore why unfinished footage can create a misleading impression, how leaks take control away from the people presenting a product, and whether some suspiciously polished tech leaks might actually be intentional marketing. Have leaks made product launches less exciting - or do you enjoy seeing everything as early as possible? Show Notes: https://www.htmlallthethings.com/podcast/are-tech-leaks-real-or-just-marketing
