Haven't been watching LTT (or GN) for a couple of years, but this made me go to LTT's channel and unsub. Can't believe what Linus has become. Love the thorough look into all this from Steve.

Why? This is a solid criticism, but I don't think it warrants any kind of "revenge" or whatever. Just let LTT address it and hopefully be better going forward.

I would agree until it came to the blatant and grossly negligent mishandling of Billet Labs' unique and one of a kind prototype. What they've done can't be "addressed". That can sink a smaller company that was depending on that hardware. And then LTT dared to drag them after completely fucking up their own process during the entire video.
