3D Printer Reviewers: Being honest in this industry will put you out of a job.

This is the emails between the YouTuber YGK3D and Anycubic, it seems like they won’t send 3D printers to reviewers who mention their GPL3 license violations.

tl;dr Anycubic uses open-source software for their firmware, but doesn’t make it public as per license agreement, and they don’t seem to be friendly to anyone who calls this out.

Bambu labs entire business plan was YouTube marketing. YouTube is infomercials.
Have you noticed how many YouTube videos are suddenly now including their own ad soundbites? Not even an ad from YouTube, but sponsor messages read by the creator themselves in the video. These are becoming increasingly common.
It’s gotten so popular that even YouTube itself has a built in skip ahead feature for premium subscribers lol
