The Billet stuff is even worse because he trashed a startup company (that could be crushed by bad press from someone with so much reach) for his own mistakes, then doubled down to avoid blame saying that they couldn't spend a few hundred dollars to test it correctly with the right card (despite having millions of dollars) and that the results wouldn't change anyway (though it clearly would). Then, LTT auctioned the block off without Billet's permission, then tried to not pay Billet for it.

Billet also sent them a 3090 Ti with the block and they lost it. They had the hardware and they screwed up, and then just went “we’ll just talk shit about it because it wouldn’t have worked anyway, right? trust me bro”

They literally agreed to review the product just so they could shit on it. That's pretty dishonest.
