As someone who read the books long before the show ever came out, this is pretty unacceptable. I stopped watching the show before season 3, and I won't be watching it anymore until I have read the final word of the final book. And if I am exposed to any major spoilers, I have no issues with not reading another page or watching another episode of this whole farcical situation.

The internet being what it is, spoilers are nearly unavoidable, and I will not support this thing any further if it's ruined for me.

Well, you're gonna be waiting for the rest of your life, buddy. While there's at least a chance that "The Mountain Who Doesn't Write" will actually finish Winds some day, book 7 is a lost cause. I put the books behind me when I finished Dance five years ago, and I'm not looking back. It's been nearly a decade since I first read this series, and in that time GRRM has written one freaking book -- which was  technically only half of a book that he was supposed to have finished ten years ago! And -- holy shit! -- it wasn't even that good! No. There's no chance the book series is ever going to end.  The show may have butchered elements from the books, but at least it's happening.

Also, good luck avoiding spoilers. I've never been able to pull thst off with any popular work. There's always some jackass who has to bring it up in a totally unrelated discussion.
