While David will reply, a YT-based revenue model as an income cannot be completely unbiased. They have self-interests; the comments, review and other things will have to guard that self-interest. Otherwise, they will disappear threatening their livelihood. Let’s not forget they also have to put food on the table for their family.
The downside is many innocent consumers get caught in the cross-fire because popular XYZ endorses them. This is a brutal commercially motivated world with no regard or concern for the mass. We have seen JH ripping the Aldi or £100 machines apart, but not certain brands even if they aren’t even up to certain standards. But, he leaves enough guarded hints for his followers to decipher.
Similarly, this guy has achieved his objective by touching the most popular product in the prosumer coffee segment. It is up to us as individuals to decide if he is biased, balanced, and so on.
Unfortunately, the public — those who get influenced — are always at the receiving end. I empathise with them.
This is true in the case of food industry, FMCG, electronics and so on.
I love watching JH’s video and also like watching LH’s channel. As a coffee lover, I learnt something from them. So, their revenue model doesn’t bother me as an individual. 😊
