Comment on THE NVIDIA AI GPU BLACK MARKET | Investigating Smuggling, Corruption, & Governments
amju_wolf@pawb.social 1 day agoUm, can you give some examples (with proof) of where LTT got paid to give a good review?
That’s an extreme accusation, and everything I’ve watched for the past decade+ seems to contradict that.
For obvious reasons that’s something they want to avoid. Hell they’re still happy to get on the bad side of companies for integrity, they’re just way less aggressive and outspoken about it compared to GN.
In fact I feel like GN sometimes overplays it a bit.

Yes, and I can make it without fear of him suing me, because it’s true.
It was pretty obvious if you have more than 2 brain cells and the ability of critical thinking.
But Gamers Nexus actually gave examples of conflicts of interests:

This is actually from way after I stopped viewing LTT trash, but I can’t just go back multiple years and dig up the evidence.
But if you really are curious, you would have to track his “sponsors” and compare them to his reviews. And the evidence will quickly be pretty clear.
It was very obvious that after AMD became a sponsor around 2018, Radeon suddenly got way better reviews.
Raja had tried to suck up to him, and give him special treatment and privileges with the Vega release, which didn’t work the slightest. But when they became a sponsor THAT WORKED!
But if you don’t have eyes to see what’s going on, I really can’t help you.

I just want to point out that you gave no proof and admitted that Intel sucks. Also I don’t need to see any sponsored videos to know AMD has gotten better.

WTF! I gave a timed link to Gamers Nexus CLEARLY demonstrating LTT posting videos with similar conflict of interest, which is exactly the same!!
And I gave examples of how payment as “sponsor” which was the method he mostly used, gave exactly the result I claimed. And even that the opposite was also the case for the non payment.
HOW the fuck can you say I gave no proof? You appear to refuse to see the truth.

Again, you didn’t provide any examples where LTT got paid to give a good review.
They’re in the tech industry, they’re going to have conflicts of interest if they diversify their investments. And Gamer Nexus didn’t do as deep of a dive on those as you think.
