The Mandalorian Season 2

But then the meme kicks in - they can't shoot straight, and dozens of them are chasing an untrained farm-boy around for ages without a single shot hitting it's mark. It's so egregious that fans have made up conspiracy theories about it; the Troopers were under orders to allow Skywalker to escape so that he could bring the leaked Death Star plans to the rebels where the trap would be sprung and they'd be wiped out forever, etc.

It's less "fans made a conspiracy theory about this" and more "Leia openly speculates this in the movie, and then Vader and Tarkin directly admit it". Like, how is this a conspiracy theory when three main characters actually say it onscreen?
