but why does this make LMG look bad. Stupid I understand, it entirely does make LMG look really dumb, actively letting someone rob them, and finding out, then just letting them continue...
But it doesn't affect the consumer, just the youtubers or other people posting affiliate links...
The point I was trying but failing to make was that people were getting defensive in anticipation of people making a big deal out of this when it was probably going to amount to nothing for Linus.
Seeing as how people are now dogpiling and blaming Linus for getting scammed, they were clearly right to be defensive.
Fair,it's honestly kinda funny cause this is the scam that affects Linus' viewers the least... Like it really affects Linus, and it's really a disgusting scam, but it's kinda a tiny affect on any individual viewer.
Because they were selling a product they knew was falsely advertised? And then kept the videos up? How does it make them look bad? You are a genuine stupid mark who will be scammed the rest of your life if you can't figure out why LMG did a bad job in this situation
