Here’s why you shouldn’t watch Game of Thrones’ leaked episode 4, The Spoils of War

Fans have taken to Twitter to urge others to avoid watching the leaked episode 4 of Game of Thrones, The Spoils of War. Here’s why.

The Spoils of War, episode 4 of the seventh season of Game of Thrones was leaked on Friday. The leak was traced to Star India, who confirmed the unfortunate event, and promised an enquiry would be conducted. But fans of the show are more concerned with a bigger question: Should they or shouldn’t they watch the episode before it airs.

Aside from the fact that doing so would be illegal, several fans on Twitter have pointed out that the leaked episode isn’t in HD. The 360p file, with visible Star India watermarks and a timestamp that last the entire 50-minute duration of the episode, has proven to be enough of a deterrent for fans.

Some even urged others to support the show and watch it legally when it is aired - Monday morning for us in India.
