Has Valve ever made a statement on this? Sounds like a terrible idea to me / this could be taken down on a whim by Valve.

On the CSGO[0] and TF2[1] twitter accounts they made statements.

Judging by their people page, there is only 1 corporate council. So that person would have to first notice and also care to put up a fight.
They don't like the leaks but are quite tolerant of them. The exception seems to be the HL2 Beta leak from decades ago.
