Setting aside the factual accuracy of LTT content (which is a separate discussion entirely), the main thing that they did well and that I generally enjoyed was their brand of jank content - like building impractical virtualized gaming setups, stupid water cooling projects, stuff like that.
If even a handful of these accusations hold water then I would no longer be able to enjoy that content knowing what took place behind the scenes in the process of creating it.
If all of them turn out to be true…I am neither Canadian nor a lawyer but it sounds like charges could be brought. In that case I don’t see any way that trust in LTT/LMG could be rebuilt outside of some major team members stepping down.
It’s Test Kitchen stuff all over again. Corporate capitalist culture repetitively turns lovely and bright stuff about something innocuous and innocent like food or computers into exploitation, greed, harassment, and misery.
Well, this is pretty fucking horrific if true.

From this day forward, I will finish every email with these words.
