  My personal rule is.. If a bunch of influencers are excited about it.. I shouldn&apos;t be.

  &quot;you can literally get one of these PCs for one month and then win a fortnite tournament or something and have enough money to my your own pc&quot; has got to be the stupidest thing I&apos;ve heard in ages. &nbsp;Who&apos;s going to go from not having to access to a PC to becoming a Fortnite Tournament winner within a month?

  As a small computer repair shop (and content creator), I can&apos;t express how thankful I am that GN CONSISTENTLY calls out the BS these companies try to pull, and forces them to be held accountable for their shady actions and practices. ALL OF US that have boots on the ground in the industry feel like we&apos;re yelling at clouds when gigantic companies pull predatory or anti-consumer stuff like this, so hearing you unload at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pomC1CfpC0&amp;t=1440">24:00</a> unleashed a feeling in me that I could only express through buying a shirt on your website, using your code. THANK YOU for always prioritizing the most vulnerable consumers, even if it means going against what&apos;s best for your finances. Truly The Greatest Tech Channel That&apos;s Ever Lived.

  This was released months ago, and the influencer talking about winning a Fortnight tournament to pay for a PC is still one of the most insane things I have heard. It&apos;s like justifying buying a muscle car because you might win a sanctioned street race.

  the fact that you contacted an actual loan shark and got a better quote is insane.

  They&apos;re clearly targeting kids and teens with those ads. This was well worth a perma ban.

  Thanks! My son (15) came across that website offer a few months ago and wanted to save up his money and rent a computer for the summer. &nbsp;I was appalled at the cost. &nbsp;I spent so much time explaining to him this was a huge rip off. &nbsp;Wish I had seen this back then. &nbsp;I had went to the site because I was checking specs on their new Flow case and decided not to get that based solely on the bad taste it left in my mouth.

  Shipping an award for how sh*tty a company is directly to their headquarters is actually brilliant.

  I&apos;m an old crippled dude from Spain, but I really &nbsp;appreciate the simple fact that you guys don&apos;t let the fact that someone is a sponsor get in the way of real journalism .The simple fact that you do all of this for people you&apos;ve never met on the internet over companies paying your wages is just simply mind blowing to me. Keep up the great work.
