GoT final season's 1st episode posted online 4 hours early by mistake
'Game of Thrones' season 8 premiere was released about four hours ahead of its scheduled time slot by American satellite service provider DirecTV, owned by HBO's new parent company AT&T. The episode was live for some users for hours, before being taken down. "Apparently our system was as excited as we are for Game of Thrones," an AT&T representative said.
