Game of Thrones leak and watermark: a stupid track...
True - and then what? The leaked episodes may have been stolen or can be claimed to have been stolen.
Anyway, the horses have bolted and the damage is done.

Yes, but the leaker would be blacklisted from all future HBO (and possibly partner) pre-release materials.

Do you know for a fact that the leaker is the same person (organisation?) that has received the official HBO material? Maybe it is more like this:

Maybe so, but HBO isn't obligated to prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt. Arguably if someone can't keep the screener secured from internet thieves they're still not a trustworthy guardian of the content.
