Half of them are press. I’m starting to believe YouTubers are propping up obvious scams.
Just now catching onto that? Well let me make your day by saving you money with Honey!
(Don't actually download Honey. It's just a tracking service)
Its a tracking service that steals money intended for someone else. If you want to support your favourite youtuber and click on their affiliate link for a product you want to buy, honey swaps out the affiliate identifier with its own and then "shares" a fraction of what they steal with you. Honey is fucking cancer.
Actually Honey is way worse than that. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vc4yL3YTwWk
