leakage
Read a random definition: subversion
A quick definition of leakage:
Leakage is when a liquid spills out of its container. This can cause waste and loss of the liquid. Sometimes, when liquids are imported, an allowance is given for the loss caused by leakage. Leakage can also refer to the loss of value of something that has been copied without permission. This is especially true for things like CDs and DVDs.
A more thorough explanation:
Definition: Leakage refers to the loss of a liquid from its container. It can also refer to a reduction in the value of intellectual property due to unauthorized copying.
Example 1: If a bottle of water has a crack in it, water may leak out of the bottle and be wasted.
Example 2: A company may experience leakage of their profits if someone copies their product without permission and sells it for a lower price.
The examples illustrate how leakage can result in a loss of resources, whether it be a liquid or intellectual property. In both cases, the loss can have negative consequences for the owner of the resource.
