How are episodes kept getting leaked?

It came to my attention that apparently episodes of season 8 were leaked on various websites before they are aired. How do they do that?

They indeed have, and I actually wonder that myself. Either something went wrong on the producers part, by accidentally publishing something that's not meant to be seen by the viewers considering the leaks are a "raw" version of the episodes (no music or special effect sounds). Or I think that there also might be the slight possibility of hacking... but again, I'm not sure. I've been wondering this myself too.

There was a hack in the server from the studio a few months back.

Personally, I avoided the leaks. I have no wish to watch an unfinished product.

It's not exactly unfinished, the basic idea for the episode was there. For me personally I started disliking leaks in general, most of the time It serves to generate publicity and the internet traffic.

Someone hacked Hasbro's servers and stole them, then posted them on 4chan
