Though, more seriously, I’m curious how effective anti-leak efforts actually are. I mean, the Nintendo Switch 2 was basically a fully formed product many knew about before Nintendo actually announced it officially.
Employees start leaking when they feel like they can’t advocate for change through proper channels inside the company AND they care about the work that they’re doing.
So to stop leaks, you either need to let employees drive some decisions (even if it’s unpopular with your stockholders) OR cultivate a workforce that doesn’t care and are just in it to cash their paycheck.
Blessed are the leakers.

I think option 2 is the destination.
