I knew not to use Opera GX as soon as they started sponsoring youtubers. I swear, youtube sponsorships are like anti-ads. 9 times out of 10 they're doing something sketchy.

Lol, now that I think of it I had never seen a YouTube ad or sponsor where I would say "this is an ethical and fairly priced product without a catch that I would like to buy"...

I only saw a decent product once, it was Henson razor. Not sure if it's ethical and fairly priced (those are somewhat hard to tell, imo). If I weren't using it already, the sponsorship would have deterred from trying 😅
