LegalEagle and Wendover Productions actually beat them to the punch (Nebula) on this. They filed on 29th December 2024, a whole 4 days earlier.
And since the US courts charge money to get these documents, I downloaded a copy of the complaint earlier on my PACER account so anyone who’s interested can read it without incurring the stupid fees. Enjoy
Edit: Devin Stone (the host of LegalEagle) is actually a lawyer on this case. His name and his law firm are listed as a lawyer for the plaintiff on the complaint.
Meh. I don’t care about youtube personalities losing money when they all collectively contributed to lowering our standards and making us accept a ‘new normal’ of ads in videos.

Make sure you download the SponsorBlock browser addon. It automatically skips over sponsored ads in the middle of youtube videos.
Edit: Good job sticking up for people who only see you as dollar signs. Can’t say I expected more.
SponsorBlock generaly sucks, I can do it manually
No it doesn’t.
LTT fans are in complete meltdown over big mean steve pointing out that Linus seemingly discovered this and stayed completely quiet about it.
Linus seems to had a big hissy fit about the whole subject of Honey on his WAN show, too.
WAN show is like 33% Linus whining about any actual or perceived slight against him for like over a year now. It’s getting so annoying.
I tend to agree that they should have spoken up. Even if just for the damn clicks and views.
At this rate Steve is going to end up offed or cancelled in some kind of way, he keeps digging deeper.
They are running a drama/scandal focussed channel. Of course they are going to be controversial at times.
investigative journalism is drama now 👍
Just to make a more meta comment, this is a case where cynicism is definitely not helping. We need better journalists to do this kind of deep dive without concern for losing a revenue stream. And not just in gaming hardware, either.
If we cynically label every journalist that does it as “drama mongers”, we’re only hurting ourselves.
