I think I'm finally ready to unsubscribe from Linus Media Group channels. Between their rampant misinformation, their questionable conflicts of interest/ethics violations, a corporate handbook that forbids discussion of wages (which is illegal in British Columbia, by the way), and clear demonstrations of wage theft by the company, Linus's entire facade of being a for-the-people reviewer is obviously fake. Linus Media Group's entire goofy atmosphere seems to hide an underlying corporate culture that values quantity of content and profit over all-else.
There are plenty of other tech review channels that are built on much more integrity. Check out the Gamers Nexus video for their findings, and testimony from a previous Linus Media Group employee. #LinusTechTips #LinusMediaGroup #GamersNexus
