Linus's response.

I honestly fully stand by GN in this and while I think LTT should have had the opportunity to respond to the allegations before the video went live, since this is the proper Journalistic thing to do, it should be considered that ltt has a huge audience and influence in the tech sphere so I can only assume GN didn't want them to get ahead of the curve? It's sad if it has come to this.

I also don't know how exactly ltt could respond to the observations GN made since it's a piece about what happened in videos they posted. They can't really deny what happened. All they could do is lower their head and promise to do better.

Ugh, Hes trying so hard to double down on his comments, while giving plausible deniability to his doubling down, especially with the Billet block.

And its so fucking stupid to complain that the billet waterblock is expensive and stupid, considering ALL the stupid, expensive, wasteful bullshit hes done on his channel.. Its double stupid that hes still using his basis on using the wrong card that didnt fit it as his argument.

So, you may not have caught this... Billet labs sent them the correct card with the block. LTT fucksticks lost the goddamn card.

The big reason Steve didn't go through Linus first, and he mentions it a few times in the video, is because LMG is no longer a small company or a one man YouTube show. They're s big company. I know Linus works hard to hit that YouTube grind, but he still sees himself as a small YouTuber.

I mean Steve would have done this same piece had it been gigabyte, Newegg, or whomever on that larger scale.
