Their issues are:

Bad data - major errors in review videos

Ethical concerns - conflicts of interest, Billet review, Pwnage review

“Billet review” is downplaying by an extreme degree.

They reviewed a cooler prototype designed for one product using a different one and claimed the product was not worth a purchase for anybody, ever. Linus was aware of the issue, but said the product was bad and not worth “$500 of extra time reviewing it correctly”.

Then, they took this internal prototype that the company lended for review and, after claiming to be ready to give it back two times, SOLD IT to a random third party during an event. An event where competitors from the original company were visiting.

The company already confirmed that was their best prototype and they were relying on it to iterate on the design.

So LTT accepted a lent prototype from a new company, absolutely trashed the product in a review they purposely published with wrong methodology, then stole the prototype and sold it to God knows who.

what they did to billet is goddamn evil

Evil - least sheltered redditor, just an ass

ruining a prototype product, talking shit about it, and then selling it is a lot worse than being “just an ass”

K hes hitler the evil twins

Damn, I thought we had a while before the 14 yr olds showed up on Lemmy.
