Firstly, I will start out by stating the Billet situation was handled like dogshit by LTT. Full stop.
Now when it comes to what Tech Jesus is trying to convey with his video is as follows The original
- Conflicts of interest with Tech companies
- sloppy data collection potentially misleading consumers
- rushing production for weekly upload goals
- Poor in house communication
- 3 and 4 is how Billet got fucked
These are all markers of a corp with 1 goal GROWTH.
The only problem I have, is the communities hyper fixation on Billet. What could, happen is it being the sole focus. (luckily GN corrected the timeline in a follow up) When Billet gets made whole, which they will. This could let Linus off the hook for this whole thing
I and probably alot of others dont wanna see LTT go up inflames, but address this controversy in good faith, reflect on there current operation, and improve it.
This whole thing calls almost all reviewers into question, and could create even more distrust in them.
Hopefully I'm not being a blowhard, and Steve if you see this Thank you for holding companies to the fire.
