Linus Gabriel Sebastian & Linus Media Group / Linus Tech Tips - Narcissistic corporate shill YouTuber driving his media empire into the ground. KILL COUNT: 2

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Appears as though we've got a little channel hack going on at the moment. Crypto-related "livestream" featuring Elon, Jack, and two others I cannot identify. The pinned message in the live chat says you should go to SCAM: https://tesla-online.net/ for more information. It's currently 3:25am in Vancouver. Wonder how long this takes to get fixed?

Update: a second stream had started, both of which are now down. The fake Tesla site is gone too.

Another update: all but a dozen of Linus' videos are set to unlisted. Crypto streams are back up.

This same thing happened to another channel that does documentaries about serial killers. It happened probably 2 weeks ago. They did this same Elon Musk livestream and had crypto donation links.
 
Code:

A popular anti scammer YouTube channel also had this happen to him. This video here explains how it happens.


It's not the a typical hack, but a flaw in how Google allows accounts to be shared.
How the fuck does someone who's entire job is centered around identifiying internet scams fall for one of the most basic scams I have ever seen.

"You have a duplicate adsense account" is already a mega stretch, especially for someone with 4 million subs, but then to do the mental gymnastics of "I had just gotten a new phone so I put two and two together" as if a phone somehow affects your adsense account. God is that stupid

Yeah I started off thinking the google email trick was mildly clever but then... noooo.
 
the videos are back to being unlisted. Don’t feel like doing the work. Funny ones were captured already. Left a few comments, of course.

Have this unlisted Minecraft intro. https://youtu.be/uUW097YjPj4
They are playing wackamole with all of their unlisted videos right now, looks like they were using the YouTube channel as a glorified cloud server.

Whoever thought it was a good idea to allow embedding scripts in documents which automatically run needs to get the rope.
If you really need the functionality it should ask for confirmation with big red warnings and alarm bells going off; and even then peopl who fall for phishing would run it regardless.
How to open PDF safely then? Is there a viewer that allows you to disable all scripts embedded?
 
lol. how come cloudflare didn't do anything about this?
Pajeet pretended to be trans ally. Cloudlflare looked the other way.
single server and he insists that's how everyone works
Did Colton even do this? Or are they just cloud managing everything? Last time they toured the Wacky Shack they didn't even have a server room, they just gestured at a poorly ventilated area and laughed about it.

Wasn't Linus the supposed tech expert to prevent this kind of thing?
