Didn’t Linus get un-cancelled after the investigation didn’t find anything?
I don’t know the details but it seems like GN and Linux Sebastion are throwing punches again, with Louis Rossman having published a video siding with the former today

YouTube
my take was that GN Steve is the one throwing punches and Linus said on the WAN Show that he didn’t want any part of it
Linus is scummy, definitely only cares about $$ and image. kept pushing honey after he knew it was a scam and left his fans in the dark to continue getting tracked and scammed. immoral shit bag.

I feel like a lot of this is wrong. He only knew about the creator link hijacking, not the anti consumer practice of not using the best Coupons.

Additionally he did drop honey? He didn’t keep pushing it.

If he didn’t know about the fake coupon comparison how is he leaving the fanbase to get scammed?

He still keeps saying something along the lines of honey still gets people the best deals, even though the coupon codes are part of the scam. (Honey coupon 10% off, but you can find 20% and 30% off on other coupon websites, honey does not get the best deal almost never.
He is not saying that at all? He said, at the time he believed that was the case. Which he knows now is not true. But back then he only knew about the affiliate link redirection, which only effected creators not consumers.

I did hear him say those words on the wan show, but maybe I might have missed what he said before that or idk. Seemed weird if he was doubling down.

He also said in the wan show a few times that he never watches YouTube and only reads comments for the gist of it, so maybe he is uninformed. Idk
