juicy new controversy with ltt?
Steve called out LTT for knowing about the Honey marketing scam but not saying anything because it would harm his business (This isn't speculation. Linus said it publicly.) LTT called for peace with Gamer's Nexus using the veiled threat that Gamer's Nexus comments are causing material harm to his business.
Steve responded by posting an old text exchange he had with Linus regarding a LTT Wan show that copied a Gamer's Nexus video without even mentioning they they were using Gamer's Nexus script (almost identical in topic order, format and words) for their show. If Steve was a serious business instead of a fan running a channel as a business, that's where lawyers would have been brought in to sue LTT. Instead Steve only asked for acknowledgment- which Linus never gave.
The part about honey is a complete misread of the facts. There were posts on the LTT forum about honey scamming creators, and Linus himself said that within the creator community he thought the news got around enough to not warrant a video about it.
So many linux people have a hate boner for the guy because he's got a prickly personality and makes videos for the unwashed masses, but he still has integrity.
Ok you lost me there. No.
