I think the big issue is this:  you never know who might be on this
list.  And if some information that is not supposed to be released to
the public yet is posted, then people who *know* it's not supposed to
be released will see it, and wonder who leaked it.  And somebody's ass
is grass.  I, for one, don't want my friends who are supplying me with
info, promos, etc., to get fired or even chewed out for just being a
friend.  Therefore, if I have info that I've been told is not for the
public yet (or I intuit that it is not), I keep it to myself...or
maybe just tell a couple of close friends.  It's got more to do with
"cover your friends' asses" than "corporate morality", at least in my
case.
