As many of us have been using YouTube, We often come across sponsors with shady business practices. Regardless of where you are on the political spectrum you will often come across sponsors on your favorite YouTube channels as they often become demonetized by YouTube's strict ad policy. In order to inherit revenue on their videos they have to interrupt their video around the 60 second mark to give out a 60 second advertisement about their shitty shady products that almost certain exist to pocket your money. Often sold in discounted Black Friday sales. This is how these companies are able to make millions of dollars, enough to sponsor massive YouTubers for profit and gain.
Galton Voysey Sponsors
Just to give you an example of some shady sponsors, We'll be looking at the Hong Kong based sponsors that own two of the specific companies. Established Titles and Kamikoto Steel Knives. This parent company itself claimed to have an office in Tokyo, Japan which was later to be revealed to be the location of a hotel (Nakano Sunplaza to be specific), when that revelation was revealed to the masses, the company then changed it's address to a different location.
Established Titles
Established Titles is a company that promises you to own a piece of land in Scotland and promises you to allow yourself to be declared lord or lady which is similar to many corporations that claim you can buy a plot of land on the moon or buy a star in the sky. The big hurdle is the fact that the land is in an area owned in the borders of a sovereign state which makes declaring yourself a lord of lady implausible. Purchasing a plot of land would also promise you a tree planted near the area with the company One Tree planted with absolutely no evidence of that ever happening.
Kamikoto Steel Knives
Owned by the same parent company that owns Established Titles. Kamikoto Steel Knives is a knife brand that promises you premium brand sharp steel knives, closer inspection shows that they're handcrafted in China (With the exception of Ganjo Series that can't be found indirectly and isn't sold regularly) using SUS420J2 steel which happens to be the worst quality of Stainless Steel for most knife brands. The Ganjo Series itself being the only proof that it sells Japanese knives while they continue producing half asses Chinese made knives because they are much cheaper to make.
Save Your Balls by not falling for this scam!
Manscaped is a grooming company that specializes in Electric Razors. Compared to other sponsors, this one manages to cut short on a person's rate of interest and offers money through PayPal (which in today's day in age is something to avoid the fuck from). Even when you question their underpayments, they won't give you a reason why.
To give you an understanding on how shitty their products actually are, there are several examples of problems and defects stated by many customers who used to product for years. (Link|Archive)
Also, got to love this mostly cookie cutter response from the company itself.
Feeling suicidal and you don't want to get up on your fat ass and leave the house? We got a solution for that!
Better Help is a company that offers therapy for the mentally ill for half the price of other therapies and the ability to do it online for any fat ass with an irrational fear of the sun. They offer a seven day free trial when expired will automatically bill people the full price even if you cancel the subscription. They'll find you a "therapist" if you answer a few questions in their survey but won't take responsibility for their half assed attempts. Often deleting these statements where they don't guarantee a good therapist and have the curtesy to tell the customer it's their responsibility if they get a good therapist or not. Getting a good therapist is a gamble in itself as many people often end up with shitty therapists who don't know the basics of therapy in the first place. Many people who were sponsored by this company claim they diagnose them when made clear on their websites they don't do diagnoses.
VPN's owned by a Jewish monopoly.
Are you tired of being vulnerable to hackers, corporations and governments stealing your data? Well you're shit it of look if you're looking forward to shilling in some of your shackles for a half assed VPN service that they promise you are not run by Jews who will continuously sell your personal data online. (Which they are.) Express VPN for example has been sold to the Israeli-based company Kape Technologies for nearly a billion dollars in stock purchases effectively adding this VPN into a catalog of other VPN Services owned by Kape Technologies. The fact that there is a monopoly running a VPN service really makes you question the effectiveness of VPN's in general.
Paid Shadow Legends
One of the most common sponsors on YouTube just so happen to be Raid Shadow Legends. Raid Shadow Legends is a poorly made game with a monetization-based design that is designed to empty your wallet (as well as promising you many different gimmicks as it was advertised as being free). Statements made in the sponsors say that new players who sign up get a "Rare" character and 50,000 silver coins which may sound amazing until you realize the game is grindy as shit. The game itself claims to have hundreds of characters which just so happens to be reskins of their existing roster. A majority of people who seen these ads never even bothered playing the game nor do they know anyone who played the game and those who play this game call out that game for being absolutely shitty!
In conclusion, massive YouTubers accept these sponsors either by not taking a further inspection into their products or because they desperately need the money but in many cases it's both. YouTube has created an environment for shady businesses to sponsor YouTubers already suffering the wrath of YouTube's demonetization which leaves many naïve customers to further fall for scams that at first seem legit to them and unknowingly promote a company allowing them to further scam their customers.
