[QUOTE=cheesylard;50790948]More like: [img]http://i.imgur.com/AqPQGwT.png[/img] He could have just said himself (with his voice) the video was sponsored. Instead, he opted to put it in small text in the bottom left corner for 5 seconds at the beginning (since he was probably legally obligated to do so). And what more, he used a god damn aerosol flamethrower and screamed in order to distract the viewers from seeing it, effectively hiding the fact the video is a 5 minute ad. I don't care if you were keen enough to notice that little blue text the first time watching it. I'm sure 90% of his viewers didn't.[/QUOTE] I don't really follow Linus videos that much but their channel recently did have a transparency kind of review of how they make their income and what their standards/ethics/morals are and they seemed very cool and that they don't just say nice things for money. If you're inclined to do so you can research said video yourself because I am too lazy to go and find it again. And besides, if you can't tell a video is sponsored when he gets a package that has his name PRINTED on the box then I don't know what to say.
