This video is not monetized. This video covers our 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). We tried to approach this as objectively as possible and hope that viewers are able to listen to the evidence we present, particularly as it relates to significant and frequent data errors that now present in nearly every technical review video.

    Oh I’m aware. He has always struck me as very quick to react and slow to introspect (which is kinda inline with not having time to look back like was said in his team’s video). I definitely have issues with some of his philosophies, but on a scale from regular person to Hollywood CEO he doesn’t strike me as actively malicious, just misguided.

    Just my $0.02. I understand where you are coming from, just figured I’d proffer another perspective for the sake of discussion.
