Or you could just watch the episode. It's around, in high quality and as lovely as you'd expect. But if one must remain pure until Sunday for whichever reason (I mean I always watch legally Sunday at 9 to make sure HBO gets their numbers as they should be, leaks or no leaks anyways so no real harm done), then I commend yer discipline. I don't understand it but I commend it. But it means steering clear of much of the internet. I've seen 706 spoilers in youtube comments in completely-unrelated videos. Of course, by spoiling I mean plot-points that us in the Leakbowl knew about almost a year ago. But I digress. It means only waiting 7 days for the next episode instead of 8-13 (though I wouldn't be surprised if that one leaks too)

So it's fine by me whenever I get the eps. To me that doesn't diminish the watching live experience because I've got my mum's reaction to still live vicariously through, just like when I knew info from books instead of leaks and she didn't. But to each their own.

Been spoiled by a bloody youtube thumbnail. So, er, stay off youtube guys. Also stay off porn sites too. The entire episode can be found there. I mean that's what I heard. Not that I would ever visit porn sites. On a completely unrelated note, do you happen to know how to delete one's browsing history? But seriously, I saw people on reddit talk about this. You can get spoiled everywhere. I also saw a spoilery thumbnail on Youtube. GOT episodes should not posted on porn sites. That's an insult to GOT. Porn does not contain as much sex and nudity as GOT does. GOT has far too much sex and nudity to qualify as porn. There is simply no comparison between the two.

Leaked episodes of Thrones are the best way to get the Internet as a collective to jizz its pants. Where else would it be if not amongst the porn?

Maybe HBO should try to minimize this problem for the final season by just taking a trick from Netflix and just release the entire season at one time on OnDemand. Purests can still watch one week at a time -- but there cannot be "leaks" if the entire season has already been released. HBO does not rely on ratings -- but subscriptions and subscriptions are still needed to access HBO OnDemand.
Of course, HBO will never do this because they are still stuck in the "old school" vision of how television is watched -- but I am tired of all the angst about leaks.

I know several people who were spoiled by Youtube too (and they hadn't read last year's leaks, so they were truly spoiled). It really sucks since it's one of the best episodes ever.

Spoilers don't reduce my enjoyment of the show. Unfortunate that it does reduce enjoyment for others and they were "accidentally spoiled" in a way that could reduce such enjoyment. But hopefully they can just put the issue out of their minds and just take in the grandeur of the episode.

Yeah I'm lucky in that I'd already seen said spoiler a year ago and forgotten about it. Won't ruin it for me.
Some people will be thoroughly cheesed, miffed and peeved.

Leaks don't bother me too much, I still want to watch the episode when it is released. Nothing diminishes that joy. I like the suggestion of releasing it all at once like Netflicks. Of course, I'd binge and be unable to move from the first to the last moment, but hey - what's work when there is Game of Thrones to be watched?

Don't set up "Game of Thrones" as a custom news feed tag on Google News either, there are 7x06 spoilers right in the titles of people's articles and blogs.

Even my brother's watched the episode. It took me more than 5 years to even get him to start the show. Said it was his favourite of all time by the way.
