Jesus fuck Linus. Half the reason you are popular is because people trust your statements; and you are just flushing that away.
You shouldn't trust an influencer, even someone that doesn't outright scam you, they make the videos that make them the most money.
+1, I never understand how influencer is a thing. They are basically getting paid by selling you stuff, its a conflict of interest.
What's the conflict? They have to make you believe they care about you, they don't actually have any built in interest in your well being
