The comments in response to this are hilarious.
Everything from "It's illegal footage!" to "How shitty to have you work ruined by a leak"
It might be illegal for the kid, but once it's out there, it's out there. You're not violating any laws by sharing it. It's a video of game footage. If you were sharing the actual game, yes. Not the case here.
Nothing is "ruined". "Yep, sure looks like GTA alright." That's about it. A random part of the map for a few seconds, big whoop. Any publicity is good publicity, and it's just driving up hype that much more.
In the end: not really a huge deal, other than the kid doing his dad dirty like that.
World keeps on spinning. Leaks wouldn't be that much of an attention grabber if updates were made on a timely basis. It's been 10 years since GTAV, so people want to know WTF is going on. Rockstar didn't even acknowledge its existence until last week.
On the other hand, we have companies like Blizzard who was showing off D4 in the prior years as it was being developed. That's what people want to see.
