The decision was confirmed by president of programming for HBO Michael Lombardo, who stated, "We're not sending out press copies this year, anywhere in the world. There will be no copies for review." The lockdown applies to both physical media as well as digital-screening capabilities.
Last year, the first four episodes of season 5 of Game of Thrones were leaked to a private BitTorrent tracker and then subsequently spread to numerous public file-sharing sites, including the Pirate Bay, Kickass Torrents, Torrentz and EZTV.
The source of the leak was never discovered but was thought to be a reviewer who had received the advance screeners. Downloads of the leaked episodes broke records, with millions of viewers acquiring the episodes illegally. Watch Game of Thrones Season 6 Episode 1 Online
