The video is not monetized. It covers serious concerns regarding the data accuracy of Linus Media Group, including Linus Tech Tips, ShortCircuit, and TechQuickie, particularly as it relates to rushing content out the door to favor -- by staff's own admission -- quantity over quality. As the company continues to expand into its LTT Labs direction, the importance of accurate data increases; however, even as 'only' entertainment, there are still certain responsibilities to the consumer and the manufacturers to report fairly (and to have defined corrections processes in place). The video tries to approach this as objectively as possible and hope that viewers are able to listen to the evidence presented, particularly as it relates to significant and frequent data errors that now present in nearly every technical review video.
Follow up from Steve about Linus' response: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3byz3txpso">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3byz3txpso</a><p>Looks like Steve was right to not contact LTT before publishing, as Linus misrepresented his handling of the Billet Labs situation in his statement.
I am not suprised.<p>I dont want GN much and I watch LTT even less, but the later feels more unprofessional, hyped and "influencery" than the oldschool text hardware reviewers. May they rest in peace.
A well-made, but unfortunate video. It's a shame that things like this had to be said about LTT. I hope one day they do better. More (good) information to consumers is a great goal!
