Oof. I wasn’t too bothered about tech bros shanking each other in name of ethics in tech YouTubing. But this is absolutely unacceptable. I believe Madison. If there is no confirmation from Linus that whoever sexually assaulted and otherwise degraded her has been fired so fast their fucking eyes are spinning then I’m unsubscribing. I will not be watching videos every week where I’m trying to figure out who the creep is.

That is a weird way to try and sound superior and dismissive about the original issue(GN video), like I too couldn't care less about the smol cute business shit behind that waterblock company but even then the psychopathic behavior behind pretending you have an agreement, then screwing it up, then auctioning it and then still having the narcissism of "we auctioned not sold it" BS alone is enough to put him out of any serious business for life and honestly probably even legal action.

It was far beyond just "drama".

Unsubscribe first, then if the situation is resolved to your liking, then re-subscribe. That sends a message.

If you stay subscribed, the impact is lessened.
