Some companies are just incredibly naive sometimes. Case in point: i work at a game dev studio, and our main competitor on the segment we are on is a game published by Microsoft.

The other day a coworker was talking about how that other game had a tendency to release similar content as us, sometimes right before us, with marketing material that looked eerily like stuff still in production from our marketing team, to the point that they suspected someone was leaking stuff.

Dude, all we do is discussed on teams and it's all in documents stored in office 365. They dont need us to leak anything, they can simply read our team channels and our documents. They probably spend more time discussing plausible deniability with their legal team than researching what we do.

We are also moving our analytics from Tableau to whatever Microsoft's equivalent, and nobody seems to see the issue with that either.
