U.S. cable channel HBO said on Monday that hackers had stolen upcoming programming, and Entertainment Weekly reported that the theft included a script for an unaired episode of the hit fantasy show "Game of Thrones."
HBO, a unit of Time-Warner Inc, declined to comment on the specific programming stolen in the hack.
"As most of you have probably heard by now, there has been a cyber incident directed at the company which has resulted in some stolen proprietary information, including some of our programming," HBO Chairman Richard Plepler wrote in a message to employees, which the company shared with reporters.
The company declined to comment on reports that unbroadcast episodes and scripts were among the data hacked, citing an "ongoing investigation" by unspecified law enforcement officials.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of babykillers.
If you are so careless as to leave the script on a linked computer this kind of thing will happen.
Shame,Shame,Shame!
Funny.
(btw - is septa Unella still alive? We never got any closure - only that she was to “spend some time” with Ser Gregor...)
For anyone interested, there is a Youtube link which goes over the details of the GoT episode in question. There’s nothing that can’t be guessed at after last night’s episode, as well as theories floated for months, but view at your own “spoilery” risk:

To clarify again, this is not an actual episode of the show. This is a breakdown of the main details and plot points of the season 7, episode 6 script which was posted to a Spanish Youtube channel and then translated and posted in the link above.
If companies don’t want their stuff hacked they should not have it on internet accessible machines. the same for politicians and governments.
