@hayhor Devs are never allowed to do any kind of leaks. Most times the leaks come from testers and the amount of them has increased because of the work from home model that is way more insecure.
Leaks happen because devs need to build versions of the game that contain unreleased stuff in order to test & tweak. It's a pretty difficult job to remove all the extra stuff completely each time there's a new release version and also not a good idea to bloat the build with fake stuff to obfuscate the data miners. Therefore, there will be a lot of leaks in the future, as well.
However, this won't stop Respawn from making great teasers. There's only a few players that actually check the leaks, the vast majority of them don't care and enjoy the release of new content as it's supposed to be. This is why there's no need to spend too many resources to fight against leaks.

@DoYaSeeMe well epic games supported people who leaked their content but also limit what they can or not leak ( for example they mostly told leaker not to leak live event stuff or season pass content )
but there is unofficial leaker too that appeared on website like 4chan this is such rare case tbh
