From hearing how much Spiegel & leadership hate leaks, I wonder if they have some kind of watermarking in place for sensitive data. E.g. a trustworthy leader has access to the full, real data, and each engineer/analyst upon querying for dating receives results slightly fuzzed by a known amount. If that data is leaked to the press, the fuzzing could let leadership burn the mole.
Has there been any proof-of-concept or product for data watermarking at the DB level?

You'd be putting up gates for every time some designer wants to restyle a button, every marketing person who wants to to a/b testing, and every infrastructure engineer who wants to test a release or do load testing.
