    everybody doing this as their main job is a promoter, somebody doing it for the money. Its just how this works.

    let him do this and then return to his channel after the sponsorship is done.

    Brief - actions speak louder than words and anyone can say they have integrity, but people who do cannot be bought, even for millions.

    He pretty much just promoted Temu stuff without going into Details.
    Anyway it's best to leave this guy alone.
    He came to the realization that He made a bad business decision and explains why.
    Totally understandable and People should not be too harsh on him.

    Does anyone have a backup of the original video? Haven't watched it before it's closed. I thought that Internet remembers everything until I gave up on saving files directly :dunno:

    The problem i have with him and his type of "reviewers" is that his pimary agenda is earning money, which means his opinion can be bought and this the worst type of a reviewer one should follow.
    Would you appreciate a movie critic if you knew the move company paid him a few thousand dollars to do a review?
    He is paid to promote, period.
    The only honest reviews are by people who actually bought a product, made no money from it, just doing honest reviews, because they are not under pressuer to say nice things just to please a company.

    I think it's a fair point to critique someone for bad practices.
    If nobody would have given proper feedback the video would still be online and running.
    I get the point that harassing people or watching their content 24/7 just to shit on it is bad.
    Fair critique on the other hand is absolutely justified.
    If people just ignored the video and didn't comment nothing would have changed.

    In the end it led to a good result, he reflected upon his practice and made a good decision.
    He seems like a good person to me that just made a bad decision under stress.
    Everyone fucks up once in a while.

    I suggested to him that he should compare the Temu stuff to better hardware.
    He would get some content out of that Temu trash.

    He came clean, at least for the Temu sponsorship vid. Backlash was probably not worth the paycheck. In my sense, lose too many subs and you will eventually lose the sponsorship as well, so what it is good for anyway. Errr he's still young enough. Just learn from this and not do the same mistake again. I do appreciate him admitting "guilty as charged". I hope he will get back to what his viewers are used to, because he has influence over a wide audience.
    Cheers

    He 'came clean' because it paid him to do so. If it had been more profitable to do otherwise I dare say he would have followed that path instead.

    Also, rubbing your eyes and bit and making your hair look untidy to elicit pity is another dick move. Not sure who he's trying to kid here but you've got to be a sucker to fall for that. But there again I guess if you listen to his stuff and make decisions based on it you have to be kind of a sucker.

    Yeah, look, enough of this witch hunt guys, he's already apologized... anything beyond that is absolutely an exaggeration. The moral of that story is that nobody is worthy of the 100% free snake oil certificate, and that's okay, life goes on!

    he lost at least 1k followers due to it all from what I've seen. Honestly I know Wytse worked with him in the past but I really think he was trying to do good to make ends meet but it backfired and that can happen sometimes.

    Never liked this guy anyway as well as 80 percent of these youtubers for music. More so of him not being my style/genre but I just can't gel with this guy.
