    Billet labs incident is very very troubling. I can’t see other youtubers not getting roasted over doing something like that, and could easily see a LTT video drawing attention to another channel doing something like that. So to find out LTT pulled such a move is a hit to their integrity.

      Thats the thing that irks me.

      Linus is so free with the criticism when he’s calling out other companies (At least ones that aint paying him off coughASUScough), but legitimate criticism against him is treated like the most awful thing anyones ever done.

        It would be better if he wasn’t trying to frame the Labs as being some kind of weapon or insurance to keep sponsors in line. Cool it Deputy Linus. There’s already too many Sheriffs this week with awful takes on journalistic integrity.
