Retailers are having difficulty (and are failing) to keep Harman's "Blue" launch under wraps.

      Retailers are having difficulty (and failing) to maintain the secrecy of Harman's “Blue” release. Several online stores have shared the product photos, name, description, and pricing before the official launch date. I've been hearing about these leaks since Sunday, but it seems that more retailers have inadvertently released all the information ahead of schedule.

      Many of the listings that appeared in Google Search have been removed, though some are still available, and one even allows you to add it to your cart. This isn't a new phenomenon. I've observed that reputable brands and publishers often make this mistake due to the complexities or bugs in their scheduling software. One indexed Google Search title even shouts in all caps “DO NOT ENABLE!!!” — a clear warning that was likely overlooked by either the system or an employee.

      The exact release date for the “Blue” product is currently not known to the public, although Harman has hinted that it will be “soon” in a social media post today: instagram.com/p/DL-I2N1tngC. I have tried to obscure some obvious clues in my screenshot, but a discerning reader will have no issue determining the details (or you can just ask me). I am not obligated to keep Harman’s products confidential; this is simply for amusement.

      On the topic of Harman and secrets, I have been diligently working on a related project that I plan to unveil around the same time that “Blue” launches. Stay tuned. #noSecretsSpilled
