The clear solution is to give each LP different revenue numbers. That will make it trivial to identify the leaker.

- jedberg 11y agoNot a bad idea, except that it's illegal. If they invest on your phony numbers then they can sue you later for lying to them.
- brianwawok 11y agoEven if only a few cents? What if you give everyone the same numbers in a different order? Or one spelling mistake in each release?
- jedberg 11y agoThose other options would probably be more legal but less likely to "propagate" to the leak.
- gcb0 11y agoyou never met a lawyer. send notice to LP #1. subtract value from sending that note. send new value on a note to lp #2. subtract cost... put a note on all notes that they may be an hour out of date but represent the values as accurately as the law demands for that day.
- laluser 11y agoThen by that same logic, can't the LPs just leak slightly modified number so they're not identified?

- tajen 11y ago"Number watermarking" is a very good solution against many different kinds of leaks. I wonder whether there exist services for big companies to "watermark" internal documents with very insignificant errors.
