1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,680
yep let's do it oh you got mucho and you didn't get mucho

2
00:00:04,799 --> 00:00:10,000
for me i would have gotten you oh i i am so

3
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:13,840
hungry right now mind you people would have been like even more mad if we were both

4
00:00:12,559 --> 00:00:17,680
eating on the shelf oh well i'm gonna try to like off screen it as much as i

5
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:20,960
can i'm not even going to notice how it's not even on camera they can't even

6
00:00:19,359 --> 00:00:26,800
so i'll just randomly like you'll be talking i'll be like nodding and then suddenly just that is so cringe fading

7
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:31,920
out like that is so cringe wait for it wait for it

8
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:36,559
do you want something even more cringe though um i thought of a joke uh while i

9
00:00:34,480 --> 00:00:43,280
was upstairs getting my uh power adapter from my laptop oh no

10
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,280
what is the weapon of choice

11
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,120
for the most certain ninjas

12
00:00:48,079 --> 00:00:51,039
the shuriken

13
00:00:53,920 --> 00:01:00,160
okay you need nope nope you're done you need no no i'm not saying this

14
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:04,159
negatively you need a kid's book i need a kid's body that has like kid friendly

15
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:07,439
art and there's like a little ninja with the shuriken and then you just have like

16
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:10,479
the little saying right there jokes for kids books are like pretty popular i'm

17
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:15,280
not even kidding i think that could be pretty good

18
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:19,200
one of one of the things that like i i would potentially do at some point in

19
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:23,040
the future because exactly it looks like the

20
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:27,119
easiest thing ever and if you just leverage your fame then

21
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:31,680
a bunch of people will buy it and you will make a bunch of money like it just

22
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:35,200
looks like the most obvious way to cash in on like having internet and if a

23
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:40,079
bunch of people buy it then it'll go up in like amazon rankings and stuff and then other people will buy it exactly

24
00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:43,280
and if it's decent like the shuriken joke

25
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:46,720
totally good enough and like if it goes along with like

26
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:51,119
a frame of art which is like kid-friendly ninja dude yeah yeah and

27
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:54,640
just it's like uh like blown up zoom in on the on the

28
00:01:52,560 --> 00:02:00,079
shuriken and it could be like you know what we could probably sell even more if

29
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:05,200
we build it as like a um as like a a a an educational tool

30
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:10,239
teaching kids about puns double entendres yeah so oh explain why it

31
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:14,000
works that's right that's right fantastic you could take nintendo labo's

32
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:18,319
approach and make it so that the shuriken can be like popped out yeah we

33
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:22,480
could make it like a phonics lesson yes you know why sure and sure are the oh

34
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:25,840
they're the same they say them the same way and they have two meanings

35
00:02:26,239 --> 00:02:31,120
uh so we've got a great topic great topic yeah we've got a great topic for

36
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:37,680
you guys today and then we've got a bunch of other results about shuriken um

37
00:02:34,239 --> 00:02:41,280
apple is bringing out apparently

38
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:44,800
bringing apparently 38 billion dollars

39
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:47,680
back to the us of a yeah samsung has

40
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:52,800
begun production on the industry's first 16 gigabit

41
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:55,440
gddr6 memory at t is under pressure to

42
00:02:52,800 --> 00:03:00,000
cut all ties with huawei am i saying right yes i think so yeah and there has

43
00:02:57,599 --> 00:03:05,200
been pretty major changes to the youtube partner program and you might care

44
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:08,959
or not actually i i don't know i think a lot of people care about this it's a

45
00:03:06,879 --> 00:03:14,400
funny thing because it only really affects content creators and yet whether

46
00:03:12,159 --> 00:03:20,000
it's because there are so many indie content creators now or whether it's the

47
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:24,239
the loyalty of fans towards these content creators there's feel it feels

48
00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:27,120
like there is a disproportionate amount of outrage over this

49
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:33,920
because we're going to break down who it actually affects yeah and

50
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:35,200
the impact is arguably quite small or

51
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:39,519
arguably a huge flipping deal depending so

52
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:42,959
yeah why don't we i'm excited to get into that do you want to start with that

53
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:47,120
do you want to start with that or should we make them pull should we pull like uh

54
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:50,400
more on this at 11. more on this later for youtube creators that have been in

55
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,959
the game for a long time and started really small you know what let's do it

56
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:59,519
second because i want to talk about the at t thing i was actually at the huawei

57
00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:01,439
press conference um and i didn't because

58
00:03:59,519 --> 00:04:07,360
like the ceo was like on stage and unhappy about this right yeah it was it

59
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:10,000
was actually super weird yeah um so so

60
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:13,360
we were we were there as as part of a sponsored deal i'm gonna share this in

61
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:17,040
the chat um yeah thanks so we were there as part of a sponsored deal this was

62
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:22,400
posted originally on the forum by nina 360 and the original article here is

63
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:25,360
from Android authority so here you go um

64
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:31,040
so we were there as part of a sponsored deal and there were actually a bunch of other um influencers there as well

65
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:35,440
including zach from jerry rig everything okay yeah yeah um just trying to think

66
00:04:33,199 --> 00:04:38,720
who else was there i believe keaton from tech smart was there

67
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,440
um what's that i'm trying to give you a hint on someone

68
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:45,840
that i think was there no i don't think he was there okay um

69
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:50,960
i like how that worked though i think juddner was there okay yeah i can't

70
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:56,320
remember i ran into all these guys like two to five times each over the course

71
00:04:53,280 --> 00:04:56,320
of the week so

72
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:05,600
the whole thing's a blur anyway anyway the point was there were a bunch of influencers there which means that

73
00:05:02,639 --> 00:05:10,720
huawei was spending a bunch of money on influencers specifically with the

74
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:15,360
north american reach and huawei it was boasting that they are now the number

75
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:18,080
three smartphone brand worldwide but i

76
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:22,000
think someone like you or i would look at that and unless we've seen you know

77
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:25,919
an infographic and some kind of data to back it up we'd kind of go really yeah

78
00:05:24,639 --> 00:05:30,080
whoa like really

79
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:33,280
not really actually like not really because who else would be bigger yeah

80
00:05:31,759 --> 00:05:36,720
and that's a great question but it does take a sec there's a little bit of pause

81
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:42,160
where you're like yeah because they don't get like i wouldn't say that in

82
00:05:39,039 --> 00:05:44,880
north america in the media in the in the

83
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:50,880
kiosks in your telecom store i wouldn't say that huawei gets more attention than

84
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:56,080
you know someone like an lg for example whose market share is actually abysmal

85
00:05:53,440 --> 00:06:01,199
yeah but over here gets treated like uh like a top-tier brand um

86
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:06,560
so anyway he he goes on stage and he's talking about this whole thing he's like yeah we have won over the trust of

87
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:12,319
consumers we have won over the trust of carriers worldwide and we have

88
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:16,800
you know we you know and he sort of seemed to lose his composure like i

89
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:22,639
don't follow mobile news as much as i perhaps should other than

90
00:06:20,479 --> 00:06:26,479
our topics for WAN Show and when i'm working on a review of a device or

91
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:30,800
whatever the case may be yeah um so i did in your defense it's been a little

92
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:37,199
boring for a while i did not know about any controversy or any of the plans

93
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:40,160
that huawei had made with at t about

94
00:06:37,199 --> 00:06:45,520
bringing the device not just into the us but into att stores because something to

95
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:50,880
the tune of this is according to the Android authority article here something

96
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:55,840
to the tune of 90 of smartphone sales in the us are done

97
00:06:53,360 --> 00:07:00,000
on contract with a subsidy and this isn't the case in a lot of

98
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:03,199
other markets where people do tend to buy their devices outright like they

99
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:07,280
would any other consumers but i'm not surprised due to how contracts work in

100
00:07:05,599 --> 00:07:09,919
north america and they don't work that way everywhere and they don't work that

101
00:07:08,639 --> 00:07:16,400
way like in north america buying a phone on contract

102
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:18,319
is actually not stupid yeah um and you

103
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:23,360
know with a lot of contract with some contracts but yeah um but like you know

104
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:27,759
back when i was first getting into you know cell phone ownership when i was in

105
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:30,639
like high school i absolutely just bought on contract you get the zero

106
00:07:29,199 --> 00:07:34,319
dollar phone you get the zero dollar phone and back then a lot of the

107
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:38,000
carriers at least the one i was on anyway so some carriers i'll say some uh

108
00:07:36,479 --> 00:07:42,160
the one that i was on didn't give you a discount for bringing your own device

109
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:47,360
so you were actually yeah yeah yeah if you didn't just get hardware now you had

110
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:50,639
to sign a contract that was that was the drawback

111
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:54,879
but there were what two carriers at the time there was

112
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:59,360
rogers and there was telus here i don't think bell was available here yet back

113
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:04,479
in uh back in like 2000 you're talking like sliders and stuff right yeah i

114
00:08:02,479 --> 00:08:09,120
i don't want to talk about it flip i no this is pretty bricks i hate you

115
00:08:07,199 --> 00:08:12,879
you're talking about bricks i hate you okay so i wasn't in the game at that

116
00:08:10,639 --> 00:08:15,360
point i wasn't allowed to have a phone at that age

117
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:23,599
um what was the uh what was that phone that i had

118
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:28,960
it was i don't remember v blocks i got a phone pretty late okay

119
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:30,400
this was oh nice this was my first phone

120
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:35,839
yes oh that's amazing so i got it because my

121
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:38,479
mom's hard of hearing and um

122
00:08:35,839 --> 00:08:43,839
okay so this was i i believe this was like the first like text

123
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:47,760
centric device out there yeah um but this came around at a time that bricks

124
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:50,399
were the next right so she reads lips so if you want to call her it's not really

125
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:54,320
going to work that's right i never even thought about that that makes sense yeah okay because you've met her and you

126
00:08:52,880 --> 00:09:00,480
probably didn't notice because she's really good at it yeah um but anyway so

127
00:08:57,279 --> 00:09:02,399
so that was my first phone and um

128
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:05,440
right so so the only drawback was that you had to sign a contract which didn't

129
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:09,040
really matter that much because quite frankly where else were you gonna go

130
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:13,040
if you wanted to have a cell phone at all so as long as i knew i wanted a cell phone for two years it was no big deal

131
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:18,880
and then during your two years you would accumulate credit towards your hardware

132
00:09:16,959 --> 00:09:22,640
upgrade after a couple of years the upgrade cycles weren't so fast

133
00:09:21,680 --> 00:09:27,120
like to my knowledge apple kind of pioneered

134
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:31,839
the new phone every year come heller high water upgrade cycle because there

135
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:36,399
wasn't that drastic of improvements and i wasn't an enthusiast

136
00:09:33,839 --> 00:09:39,920
at all about phones they they placed calls and in this case

137
00:09:38,399 --> 00:09:43,200
they were really good for typing text messages but that was about it

138
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:48,240
um so i was like yeah whatever who cares

139
00:09:45,839 --> 00:09:53,360
um so anyway back to the whole 18t thing so he was like visibly upset on stage

140
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:57,760
when he started talking about how you know

141
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:59,839
some carriers and some countries with

142
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:04,399
all this work that we've put into consumer privacy and security

143
00:10:02,560 --> 00:10:08,320
are treating us with the appropriate respect while others are not and like he

144
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:11,839
kind of had like he didn't say respect i don't think but it kind of had that tone

145
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:18,959
and i was sitting here in the audience kind of going wow this is a really weird way to uh to

146
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:23,040
talk about you know your big push in the u.s

147
00:10:20,959 --> 00:10:26,720
and the reason is that it's not happening

148
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:32,560
so while huawei does move some phones in

149
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:34,320
the u.s they only have access to a tiny

150
00:10:32,560 --> 00:10:37,360
ten percent of the market because ninety percent of consumers are buying on

151
00:10:35,839 --> 00:10:42,959
contract so it fell through at the last minute

152
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:46,320
and now a new report has suggested that

153
00:10:42,959 --> 00:10:49,120
it was us lawmakers pushing att to cut

154
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:52,720
ties with huawei over national security concerns

155
00:10:50,399 --> 00:10:56,480
um so senators and house members are

156
00:10:54,560 --> 00:11:00,720
encouraging att to ditch even any potential plans to work with huawei on

157
00:10:58,399 --> 00:11:04,160
standards for its 5g network 18d is expected to roll out that network

158
00:11:02,399 --> 00:11:10,480
at the end of 2018 and is competing with verizon to become the first carrier to

159
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:12,640
offer high-speed service to the us on 5g

160
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:16,240
so um senate and house intelligence committee sent a letter to the fcc

161
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:19,120
raising concerns over huawei's alleged ties to the communist party as well as

162
00:11:17,839 --> 00:11:22,320
china's intelligence and security services and there have been other

163
00:11:20,959 --> 00:11:26,560
historical moves like this

164
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:30,800
by governments to restrict huawei's competitiveness so canada for example

165
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:35,279
really surprising i think like five years ago six years ago five or six

166
00:11:32,399 --> 00:11:38,600
years ago canada actually disallowed i don't know if it's still in effect but

167
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:44,240
they disallowed the use of huawei telecommunications gear on the back end

168
00:11:41,279 --> 00:11:44,240
of carrier networks

169
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:49,279
i can totally see why so your take on this then

170
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:53,519
because it seems like you it seems like you got an opinion here luke okay

171
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:57,839
the very bottom bullet point on this and there's a lot of information on this is

172
00:11:55,839 --> 00:12:01,519
uh senate and host intelligence committees sent a letter to the fcc

173
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:05,360
raising concerns over huawei's alleged ties to the communist party as well as

174
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:10,079
chinese intelligence and security services there's already there's also a

175
00:12:07,519 --> 00:12:15,760
lot of articles online about how huawei's backend equipment specifically

176
00:12:13,519 --> 00:12:19,040
is specifically designed to allow the chinese government to tap into it um

177
00:12:18,079 --> 00:12:25,200
also just being owned by the chinese government and going up again or having

178
00:12:22,399 --> 00:12:30,240
ties to or having ties to on paper maybe there's no ownership whatsoever i

179
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:32,399
actually don't know but go ahead i

180
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:35,440
looked it up in a second ago but none of them are sources that i'm going to give

181
00:12:33,519 --> 00:12:38,639
100 credibility to got it that said there is ownership but again

182
00:12:37,279 --> 00:12:42,720
i don't know because i wouldn't give 100 credibility to those sources but anyways

183
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:46,880
with the current administration in the u.s

184
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:51,120
and it being a to some degree ties with chinese

185
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:54,480
government corporation i can probably see why there might be some influence

186
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:57,839
from the government being like no no let's not do this

187
00:12:55,839 --> 00:13:02,959
um i can definitely understand not wanting the back end equipment holy crap

188
00:13:00,560 --> 00:13:05,040
um the phones in general i think is more of a

189
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:09,040
yeah it's more just like uh out of i guess

190
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:12,000
out of well because okay this is a this is kind

191
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:15,760
of a weird insight thing that i'm going to take a tangent on for a second when

192
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:20,480
you travel to a lot of other so for north americans as we are as you travel

193
00:13:18,399 --> 00:13:25,440
to a lot of other countries it's a little weird um

194
00:13:22,639 --> 00:13:29,760
with the purchasing habits yeah and the stuff that you see around because in

195
00:13:27,279 --> 00:13:33,680
north america you see whatever when you go to a lot of other

196
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:37,680
countries not all other countries but a lot of other countries you see that

197
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:42,160
country's thing yep i mean that's particularly common in germany germany

198
00:13:40,079 --> 00:13:46,880
is huge for it japan is used for it korea is huge for it samsung everything

199
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:53,200
you'd be amazed what kind of things samsung makes toilets elevators yeah

200
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:55,360
insurance like like whoa um and like

201
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:59,279
there's a there's a much more uh and i might be using this word

202
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:03,279
incorrectly sorry i'm not super great on political stuff but there's a much more

203
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:06,320
nationalistic approach to purchasing where you want to purchase your own

204
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:11,199
country's things of course made in america made in canada are both things

205
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:16,320
yeah well like we don't mind yeah like it's kind of cool but it's not the same

206
00:14:14,399 --> 00:14:19,360
particularly for canadians i think the the truth of the matter is that you

207
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:23,199
don't really have the option to we don't we don't make enough stuff like if i

208
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:28,000
wanted to if i wanted all of my personal grooming products to be made in canada

209
00:14:25,519 --> 00:14:31,360
nope um good luck yeah like i could probably find some

210
00:14:29,519 --> 00:14:34,399
stuff i'm sure you'd be able to find especially some beard-based things oh

211
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:39,279
i'm sure i'd be able to find some canadian beard care products not that that would be a major concern for me

212
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:45,199
since this is about as much of a beard as i can grow but thank you for bringing it up the only reason why i said that is

213
00:14:42,959 --> 00:14:48,959
like around the world yeah there's a lot of like small homebrew kind of companies

214
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:52,800
that do beard stuff because you can make your own beard yeah yeah sure whatever

215
00:14:50,639 --> 00:14:57,680
backtracking anyways um it's it's yeah it's not nearly as much

216
00:14:54,800 --> 00:15:02,560
of a thing in north america but i could see how current administration in the

217
00:15:00,079 --> 00:15:05,839
u.s might be pushing to make it more so sure and would be pushing against

218
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:10,399
especially companies that have ties to the governments of other countries that are

219
00:15:08,399 --> 00:15:14,720
being purchased in a nationalistic sense from coming where there's no commitment

220
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:19,199
um you know up front to say okay yeah we're going to bring x number of jobs

221
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:22,480
into the united states because the potential here and again we don't

222
00:15:20,959 --> 00:15:25,920
know okay so we don't know what involvement if any the u.s government

223
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:29,760
has already had in the negotiations but sure if while we were to come to the

224
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:34,399
table with the us government and say okay yeah

225
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:38,000
like we're committing to assembling some percentage of our devices that we sell

226
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:41,040
within the united states in the u.s if they were gonna if they were gonna come

227
00:15:39,199 --> 00:15:45,519
and make some kind of a deal then i suspected more likely it would be

228
00:15:42,959 --> 00:15:52,959
more likely but right now i guess i can't think of a great

229
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:54,399
reason for them to be gung-ho about this

230
00:15:52,959 --> 00:15:58,560
also this part uh senators and house members are

231
00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:04,240
encouraging at t to ditch any potential ties to work with huawei on standards

232
00:16:02,079 --> 00:16:08,720
for its 5g network again that's them trying to get into the back end yup and

233
00:16:06,399 --> 00:16:12,320
i'm super not surprised that that's not the thing

234
00:16:09,839 --> 00:16:15,680
max just quietly walks off stage um i'm super not surprised that that's not a

235
00:16:13,759 --> 00:16:20,480
thing because of ties to the idea of their back end being

236
00:16:18,639 --> 00:16:27,440
tapped by the chinese government so to be very clear um you know we

237
00:16:24,399 --> 00:16:29,519
allegedly yeah like we don't know

238
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:32,800
what is or isn't happening all we know is what's going on we know the us

239
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:36,480
government is uncomfortable with it we know huawei is super unimpressed with

240
00:16:35,279 --> 00:16:40,000
what's going on and presumably at t would be as well

241
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:48,720
because by most accounts they make really good devices it's just not

242
00:16:44,079 --> 00:16:50,880
necessarily affordable if you rely on

243
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:56,160
contract subsidies in order to buy your phone and it won't be competitive when

244
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:57,920
you can walk in and buy an iphone for

245
00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:04,079
two hundred dollars yeah yeah yeah quote unquote uh versus a

246
00:17:01,199 --> 00:17:06,480
huawei device for eight hundred dollars because you have to buy the whole thing

247
00:17:05,039 --> 00:17:09,919
up front yeah um all right why don't we jump right

248
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:13,360
into the changes to the youtube partner program here this was posted by hey yo

249
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:18,400
on the forum the original article is actually straight from the youtube blog

250
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:22,400
so this is a pretty big deal do we want to do

251
00:17:20,799 --> 00:17:27,520
kind of a short recap of some of the other changes that youtube has made

252
00:17:24,799 --> 00:17:31,280
towards creators this year like sure um so what the biggest one is referred to

253
00:17:29,679 --> 00:17:36,320
as the adpocalypse and there have actually been a couple of different stages yeah uh this i think is is

254
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:41,679
considered by the community to be wave three no okay i think something along those

255
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:44,720
lines i don't okay anyway i wouldn't entirely agree

256
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:47,440
with that there's there's been i i okay i saw it referred to as that whatever

257
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:52,880
whatever the community said yeah i call it two i i could maybe bundle this in i think

258
00:17:50,559 --> 00:17:57,440
it's kind of a separate thing yeah okay the point is the adpocalypse is sort of

259
00:17:55,280 --> 00:18:02,240
used as a generic term to describe changes that too many things google or

260
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:07,120
through youtube has made fundamental changes to the way that content creators

261
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:11,039
monetize on the youtube platform and so some examples have been

262
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:15,679
um pulling monetization from potentially

263
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:19,840
touchy or controversial subjects even if

264
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:25,760
the video in question is a mature conversation about said controversial

265
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:26,640
topic and contains you know no

266
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:30,559
um you know community guideline infringing

267
00:18:28,799 --> 00:18:36,320
content like if it's you know if you're having unless you're a news

268
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:38,559
a tv news organization so that's been another

269
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:42,880
you know problem with this whole controversy is that there seem to be

270
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:47,679
channels that are getting their videos pulled just for having

271
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:50,880
knife in the metadata yeah uh or you know like a perfect example was when we

272
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:54,799
had the monetization pulled from an unboxing of the razer blade

273
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:58,080
or the switchblade switchblade interface that was the issue um so because it had

274
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:04,160
that keyword in it it got the monetization pulled so it seems like some channels are very susceptible to

275
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:08,960
this while some mainstream channels like i believe um

276
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:13,360
it's late show with colbert right i believe colbert has been pointed at as

277
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:17,360
someone who has had controversial topics in the titles i think it's basically all

278
00:19:15,120 --> 00:19:20,160
the late show hosts because they a lot okay

279
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:24,880
this is super generalizing but a lot of the late show tv programs put snippets

280
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:27,760
and clips onto youtube yes it's really popular

281
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:33,520
they get quite a few kimmel does that i think does he still do it john oliver does it very occasionally i don't know

282
00:19:30,799 --> 00:19:38,320
man um but they they get a lot of views yep and they're really heavily promoted

283
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:41,919
by the platform and they're not struck down in any way right

284
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:46,240
okay so that's been that's been a big part of the problem

285
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:51,760
then there was the whole issue that was kind of tied into monetization slash

286
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:57,360
preferential treatment where logan paul posted that extremely controversial

287
00:19:53,919 --> 00:19:59,200
video in the suicide forest in japan and

288
00:19:57,360 --> 00:20:02,640
the perception among the community i'm not going to make a judgment call here

289
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:05,600
because i wasn't sitting in the war room that i'm sure existed at youtube when

290
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:11,840
they were trying to figure out what to do about this yep um i wasn't present there um those got to be crazy meetings

291
00:20:09,919 --> 00:20:15,520
nor was i present you know with logan paul when he was thinking about how he

292
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:19,120
was going to react to the community's reaction and i wasn't sitting in the

293
00:20:17,919 --> 00:20:25,120
rooms of the people who are watching those videos i'll be honest with you guys i haven't watched it i have no

294
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:26,559
desire to see that um and actually we

295
00:20:25,120 --> 00:20:31,280
sort of didn't address it at all because my general policy on something that i

296
00:20:29,039 --> 00:20:35,200
don't agree with is to just not give it any attention whatsoever but in the

297
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:39,840
context of our news topic today it's sort of important because

298
00:20:37,039 --> 00:20:46,400
what it appeared to spark was um a conversation where the

299
00:20:42,559 --> 00:20:49,200
perception was that youtube was treating

300
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:53,760
logan paul vlogs that's the channel uh preferentially

301
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:54,559
in not removing this content or dealing

302
00:20:53,760 --> 00:21:01,360
with presumably what would have been a fair number of community reports

303
00:20:59,039 --> 00:21:07,440
and in fact at first anyway had appeared to not

304
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:09,679
penalize the channel or the user in any

305
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:15,360
meaningful way like many days for for days not just for like a couple hours

306
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:17,760
yeah um and then making matters worse

307
00:21:15,360 --> 00:21:21,840
there were instances of youtube pulling down re-uploads

308
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:27,440
of the original video because they violated community guidelines while the

309
00:21:24,159 --> 00:21:28,840
original was still live

310
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:33,200
okay so um

311
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:37,280
this blog post is sort of about how 2017 was a tough

312
00:21:35,919 --> 00:21:42,640
year in fact you know let's let's just sort of discuss some excerpts from it uh

313
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:46,320
2017 was a tough year um what do they got here despite the issues more

314
00:21:44,799 --> 00:21:51,120
creators than ever earning a living on youtube um blah blah blah major focus is

315
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:55,120
protecting our creator ecosystem ensuring your revenue is more stable

316
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:58,480
now we want to prevent bad actors from harming the inspiring and original

317
00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:02,400
creators we want to do this we want to do that

318
00:22:00,159 --> 00:22:08,080
so basically what they've done

319
00:22:04,799 --> 00:22:10,880
seemingly as a response to these issues

320
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:15,919
is they have changed the previous eligibility requirements for the youtube

321
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:18,640
partner program which going way back so should i do another history lesson here

322
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:23,520
yes okay i think it's important for this section yeah so when i first started out on

323
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,760
youtube it was either

324
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:31,440
i think it might have been pre-monetization i think i was pre-monetization i'm not

325
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:35,360
sure so when i started out on youtube it was either pre-monetization at all

326
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:39,919
or it was shortly after the partner program

327
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:43,360
had been introduced and the only way to get into the partner program was by

328
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:48,320
specifically being invited so really early guys like phil defranco

329
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:51,760
were in it well before i had access to it yeah

330
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:55,200
after that there was an application process

331
00:22:52,799 --> 00:22:58,720
that was when i got in through the ncix tech tips channel i'm not sure if Linus

332
00:22:56,799 --> 00:23:02,720
tech tips existed yet although i actually i think it did

333
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:05,520
so that was when i got in actually no i'm actually quite certain that it did

334
00:23:03,919 --> 00:23:10,480
because there was already revenue to show for the youtube program back at

335
00:23:07,679 --> 00:23:15,039
ncix when Linus tech tips was created because i remember negotiating a bonus

336
00:23:12,159 --> 00:23:19,360
around it or something okay okay then youtube basically opened up the

337
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:22,880
floodgates and they went okay we're just going to put monetization on all the

338
00:23:21,039 --> 00:23:28,159
things because we've got this inventory of videos and anywhere there's eyeballs

339
00:23:25,919 --> 00:23:31,440
google wants to put an ad yeah that's their mo that's how it works

340
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:36,559
so anyway fast forward quite a bit in april

341
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:42,080
of 2017 they set an eligibility requirement of 10 000 lifetime views

342
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:46,480
the idea was to have some kind of a history to look back

343
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:53,039
at for a given channel to make sure that it wasn't just blatant re-uploads of

344
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:55,200
copyright tv shows for example which is

345
00:23:53,039 --> 00:23:58,480
still all over the platform oh yeah and lots of other issues like music and

346
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:02,640
movies and whatever else yeah but but the idea was so so that they could

347
00:24:01,120 --> 00:24:07,280
they'd have at least you know ten thousand views worth of time to weed out

348
00:24:04,559 --> 00:24:10,400
the ones that were just blatantly not real content

349
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:14,640
and then here's the follow-up that threshold

350
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:17,200
provided more information to determine whether a channel followed our community

351
00:24:15,919 --> 00:24:22,799
guidelines but it's been clear over the last few months that we need a higher standard

352
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:24,880
so starting on the 16th of january which

353
00:24:22,799 --> 00:24:28,400
is three days ago and this the blog says starting today like they they're like

354
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:31,360
effective there's a little aggro in that in that regard yeah they changed the

355
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:36,640
eligibility requirements for monetization to 4 000 hours of watch

356
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:41,679
time in the past 12 months and 1 000 subscribers

357
00:24:39,679 --> 00:24:45,840
so basically

358
00:24:43,679 --> 00:24:49,600
it appears as though if you're a one-hit wonder

359
00:24:47,039 --> 00:24:53,760
who doesn't have any subscribers you might not be able to monetize and if you

360
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:58,640
you know run your channel as kind of like

361
00:24:56,159 --> 00:25:02,640
a hobby and you don't actually get a ton of views or a ton of hours of watch time

362
00:25:01,039 --> 00:25:05,360
but you actually have a decent number of subscribers who wait for your videos

363
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:11,279
that you may be published very infrequently you could be affected by youtube's

364
00:25:09,039 --> 00:25:16,799
attempt to crack down on potentially inappropriate videos from monetizing

365
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:20,000
now right off the bat i'm not actually working off of my notes here but right

366
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:23,679
off the bat i can identify a couple of problems here number one is that that

367
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:28,480
whole spider-man elsa thing was going on for

368
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:32,400
over a year yeah like for a freaking long time and these requirements would

369
00:25:30,559 --> 00:25:35,200
have done absolutely nothing to say not a thing

370
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:39,120
they got way more hours and way more subscribers than that the issue with the

371
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:42,720
suicide forest vlog wouldn't have thought that wouldn't have

372
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:45,919
stopped that what i'm trying to figure out right now is

373
00:25:44,799 --> 00:25:51,279
what this move has to do i think anything the community

374
00:25:49,919 --> 00:25:55,120
is upset about oh no i think this has a lot to do with

375
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:59,600
stopping things that the community is not particularly upset about but youtube

376
00:25:57,120 --> 00:26:04,880
and advertisers might be upset about um i think it will directly

377
00:26:01,679 --> 00:26:05,919
help stop things like people monetizing

378
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:11,440
movie song uh episode all those kind of uploads

379
00:26:09,679 --> 00:26:16,559
because a lot of those accounts will will get banned but will get payouts

380
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:19,679
and they'll get payouts based on content that they ripped from someone else and

381
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:24,559
they might just create a new account and then get paid out on that account create a new account get paid on that account

382
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:27,360
so i think they're trying to hammer down on that i don't think it's really going

383
00:26:25,919 --> 00:26:34,960
to solve much else another thing that i want to throw into the ring that some people have brought up is

384
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:36,159
if you have a thousand subscribers

385
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:40,240
if you have less than a thousand subscribers and less than 4 000 hours of

386
00:26:39,039 --> 00:26:45,120
total watch time over the last 12 months yeah

387
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:48,720
how much were you making so okay

388
00:26:47,120 --> 00:26:53,760
this is where we get into the conversation that goes

389
00:26:51,039 --> 00:27:00,320
is this a big deal yeah so it is a big deal in the sense that

390
00:26:57,360 --> 00:27:05,279
youtube is kind of spinning it as a benefit to the community when actually

391
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:09,919
this has as far as i can tell everything to do with the blowback that

392
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:13,840
they're getting from advertisers for having that wide open we're going to put

393
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:18,640
monetization on everything then advertisers realizing well yeah the

394
00:27:16,799 --> 00:27:22,240
brand was getting i forgot that part of the history lesson unfortunately yeah so

395
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:25,840
advertisers realizing that their brand was getting placed next to content that

396
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:28,400
they found objectionable like like literally terrorists which we've talked

397
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:35,520
about which we've talked about before and i think this is just follow up on that and

398
00:27:33,279 --> 00:27:39,039
i think that the suicide forest incident has nothing to do with this remember no

399
00:27:37,279 --> 00:27:42,720
no it does it does but not on the community side yeah what it has to do

400
00:27:41,360 --> 00:27:47,679
with is that he was a preferred channel yeah a

401
00:27:45,360 --> 00:27:50,799
channel that youtube specifically goes out there

402
00:27:48,799 --> 00:27:56,720
and pitches to advertisers like we're a preferred channel preferred channels are

403
00:27:53,679 --> 00:27:58,720
to an even greater degree i would think

404
00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:03,200
expected to abide by the community guidelines which by the way doesn't

405
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:07,520
necessarily mean that you can't drop a you know [ __ ] bomb in your video

406
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:11,120
occasionally it's spelled out pretty clearly i mean

407
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:15,120
you know egregious profanity i believe is covered

408
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:19,440
in the community guidelines i'm not sure i haven't looked at it regis is kind of

409
00:28:16,799 --> 00:28:23,200
a specific term it's a very sort of gray area actually but there are there so

410
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:26,880
there are things that well no it makes it so that probably what you just said

411
00:28:25,039 --> 00:28:31,919
isn't going to get you no owned you'd have to like go pretty ham

412
00:28:29,919 --> 00:28:34,559
so it's still gray but you'd have to but i don't know how they'd make it less

413
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:39,200
gray you know what i mean so here's the community guidelines

414
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:44,000
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah nudity or sexual content harmful or

415
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:48,159
dangerous content violent or graphic content hateful content harassment and

416
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:52,000
cyber bullying threats spam misleading metadata and scams copyright privacy

417
00:28:50,159 --> 00:28:56,720
impersonation child endangerment and additional policies a big issue about

418
00:28:54,399 --> 00:29:00,880
all this is like i can even think off the top of my head of

419
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:05,679
one or more examples that i've seen of at least every single thing in there

420
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:11,039
yeah so a vulgar language is actually bundled under additional policies

421
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:14,559
right here and it specifically says here that exp sexually explicit language or

422
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:20,559
excessive swearing in your video or associated metadata may lead to your video being age restricted so excessive

423
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:24,960
so what happened here was um and in this case i don't even think

424
00:29:22,799 --> 00:29:29,200
there's really anything in here you could call it graphic content actually

425
00:29:27,039 --> 00:29:32,000
uh violent or gory content that's primarily intended to be shocking

426
00:29:30,559 --> 00:29:37,440
sensational or disrespectful okay it's definitely exactly what it is um so

427
00:29:33,919 --> 00:29:40,240
anyway the problem here is that

428
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:43,840
as far as i can tell youtube got yet another round of blowback from

429
00:29:41,679 --> 00:29:48,559
advertisers for specifically promoting a channel that blatantly violated their

430
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:52,880
community guidelines and then the content was just left there

431
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:57,200
presumably with ads still running on and i think if it was dropped super fast

432
00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:01,279
it might have been a different reaction from the advertisers yes and from the

433
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:05,360
community yeah but ultimately that's what's going on here

434
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:08,960
the collateral damage is mostly channels that and youtube lays

435
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:13,120
this out in our blog post mostly channels that made less than two dollars

436
00:30:11,279 --> 00:30:16,320
and fifty cents last month okay this is what i was saying and less than a

437
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:20,720
hundred dollars in the last year if you're relying on that

438
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:24,720
whoa yeah there is probably other ways that

439
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:28,960
you can make money on the internet easier pretty sure there are and or even

440
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:32,880
we mowed lawns and that's more profitable we sold berries oh that

441
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:38,240
wasn't profitable yeah yeah anyway but the point is that

442
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:43,039
you could just go work at the place that there's a lot of outrage about this and

443
00:30:40,559 --> 00:30:45,840
i'm putting myself i won't bundle you in with me but i'm putting myself in a

444
00:30:44,399 --> 00:30:50,960
position to say something kind of unpopular yeah but

445
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:55,200
i actually don't think this is that big of a deal i'm with you

446
00:30:53,679 --> 00:30:58,480
because okay the first thing i did when i read this was like at the very

447
00:30:57,039 --> 00:31:02,320
beginning before you get really deep into it i was like wow they're screwing

448
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:05,279
over the little guy why would they do that that makes no

449
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:10,559
sense and then i saw their thresholds and i was like uh

450
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:16,799
this isn't gonna make a difference to anyone's major bottom line so anyone

451
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:18,720
that small speaking youtuber to youtuber

452
00:31:16,799 --> 00:31:22,480
yeah i would recommend you turn off your i was just gonna say you will get more

453
00:31:21,039 --> 00:31:27,039
traction with people and they will share it more and they'll watch more of the video if you turn off the ads anyways

454
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:30,720
and you'll be seen as a good guy and more people watch your stuff because you

455
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:34,000
gotta understand that there's always a trade-off between monetization and we'll

456
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:40,080
get into our sponsors for the wine show in a moment here heck yeah there's always a trade-off between monetization

457
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:43,519
of your existing audience and audience building

458
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:46,799
we could upload videos every day that are pure ads and our audience would stop

459
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:50,559
growing or we could dial back all of our ads

460
00:31:49,039 --> 00:31:55,039
entirely and sponsors and all that stuff turn off

461
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:59,440
everything and we could grow faster and every creator out there is trying to

462
00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:03,200
find that happy medium where they are satisfied with their level of growth and

463
00:32:01,679 --> 00:32:08,799
when you're making they're making good money when you're making two bucks a month off youtube you need to focus on

464
00:32:06,399 --> 00:32:13,120
growth it's probably worth focusing on growth especially because at that point

465
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:19,919
in time growth is way harder to get with all of that said

466
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:22,240
um i'm coming at this from sort of a um

467
00:32:19,919 --> 00:32:28,960
maybe not unique but sort of an unusual angle in that the adpocalypse has not

468
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:32,000
had a significant negative impact on our

469
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:33,840
adsense yeah and uh this is something

470
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:38,159
that you know i was i was going to address at some point

471
00:32:35,519 --> 00:32:42,799
but at the end of the day you don't get a what it's called a fill

472
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:47,519
rate so the number of impressions that you serve versus the number of ads

473
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:51,519
accompanying those impressions if you had one ad on every video that

474
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:57,360
you showed to someone aunt venom just said same oh interesting yeah hi aunt um

475
00:32:54,799 --> 00:33:00,799
so so if you had one ad in front of every single video view that you showed

476
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:06,080
someone let's say it's a perfect world where nobody has ad block and youtube's

477
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:10,399
ad sales is like go in gangbusters they can sell more ads then youtube can serve

478
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:14,480
views which is like really yeah yeah okay

479
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:18,960
that would be a 100 fill rate now if youtube's ad sales you know

480
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:24,880
program completely shut down and there were no ads that would be a zero percent

481
00:33:20,399 --> 00:33:27,679
fill rate nobody has a 100 fill rate

482
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:33,039
so what it means for family-friendly content or non-controversial content is

483
00:33:30,559 --> 00:33:38,159
that your fill rate and your cpms because you might get

484
00:33:35,279 --> 00:33:42,480
access to the more premium ads as a youtube preferred partner for example

485
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:46,640
your fill rate might go up and your cpms which is the amount that

486
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:50,799
you get paid per thousand views or per thousand ad views

487
00:33:49,039 --> 00:33:56,159
that can go up too so our january this year

488
00:33:53,600 --> 00:34:00,320
our viewership will not be higher than it was last year but through a

489
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:03,679
combination of youtube red being more popular

490
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:08,639
and through the adpocalypse stripping advertising away from many many many

491
00:34:06,399 --> 00:34:12,079
many many potentially hundreds hundreds of thousands of very very very

492
00:34:10,399 --> 00:34:17,839
small channels that will contribute to a higher fill

493
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:19,760
rate and potentially higher cpm for us

494
00:34:17,839 --> 00:34:24,000
we are actually going to make more in adsense this january than we did last

495
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:27,119
january which is good because we have like five more people than we had last

496
00:34:26,079 --> 00:34:32,079
january that's that's not anyone else's problem it's just if you guys were concerned

497
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:35,760
that a lot of people do express concern at the way that we hire um and the way

498
00:34:33,919 --> 00:34:39,280
that we like build sets and buy cameras and all those things also doing business

499
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:43,040
you got it you got to do things we are we are don't worry we are we're planning

500
00:34:41,599 --> 00:34:47,679
for the future we're watching all of these trends these are things that even though we don't necessarily talk about

501
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:51,280
all the time we are we have eagle eyes on if you're on something like youtube

502
00:34:49,599 --> 00:34:56,000
and you're not moving you're screwed

503
00:34:52,879 --> 00:34:57,359
um you got to do some stuff sometimes

504
00:34:56,000 --> 00:35:01,520
and that's that's another thing i want to jump back to for the like if you are

505
00:34:59,359 --> 00:35:05,119
if you are a smaller creator and i'm using the terminology of below a

506
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:09,599
thousand subs and below four thousand watch hours in the last what is it

507
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:13,920
12 months i think it's the last 12 months um

508
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:19,920
yeah but you can't now but don't monetize and you might not

509
00:35:17,839 --> 00:35:22,320
want to monetize for a little while you might eventually get brought into the

510
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:27,599
partner program and you might want to stay not monetized because then when you

511
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:31,920
get there you will get the benefit of youtube not paying out a bunch of tiny

512
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:35,040
amounts to a bunch of creators that might never even reach the threshold

513
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:40,320
where they're going to get a check effectively giving youtube 100 of the ad

514
00:35:37,839 --> 00:35:44,800
payout so this may have such an oh that's interesting this may actually

515
00:35:42,079 --> 00:35:48,800
hurt youtube's bottom line if they are only

516
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:52,720
feeding ads to people who are actually going to get a plan now is way more

517
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:56,960
worried about making advertisers happier yeah they can get more big bins oh i

518
00:35:54,880 --> 00:36:00,240
know but this just i think in the extremely short run it might hurt it

519
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:04,640
yeah i think this is a more longer term play um

520
00:36:02,079 --> 00:36:09,440
but yeah i i would focus and maybe if you're like i need to focus on

521
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:13,520
this youtube thing more i need to cut back hours at work that's when you

522
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:17,520
monetize your videos yeah and you just tell your audience that

523
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:20,880
hey guys i'm going to monetize my videos because i want to focus more time on

524
00:36:19,359 --> 00:36:26,240
making the great content that you guys enjoy of basket weaving with RGB lights

525
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:29,920
and that sounds horrible i'm gonna i'm gonna keep doing it i'm gonna go hard

526
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:33,440
i'm gonna spend uh at least four hours a day weaving these lights together making

527
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:38,240
sure all the power strips are going all properly and you know you can have

528
00:36:35,119 --> 00:36:39,839
glowing fruit bowls um

529
00:36:38,240 --> 00:36:42,960
yeah i don't know just communicate that to your audience and that will

530
00:36:41,359 --> 00:36:46,640
serve you a lot better uh doing it later on down the line once

531
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:50,000
you have an established core audience because then they won't leave

532
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:54,800
they'll keep sharing it because they're an established core audience and you can

533
00:36:52,240 --> 00:36:57,280
actually survive more properly question for you this was a great

534
00:36:56,320 --> 00:37:03,280
question i forget who asked it

535
00:36:59,839 --> 00:37:04,480
would you allow logan paul on Floatplane

536
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:08,240
would you i don't know you're the lead of partner

537
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:12,000
management whatever true i am but i'm curious to know what you think

538
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:16,079
knowing what you know let's say that let's say that he goes

539
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:20,560
you know what let's say he didn't post an apology that was super sincere let's

540
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:23,760
say that he was just like you know what no i'm gonna film dead bodies whenever i

541
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:29,680
come across them don't worry about it um

542
00:37:26,240 --> 00:37:29,680
you're you're the public front

543
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:34,800
okay well you know what i have an opinion i'll throw my opinion i want to

544
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:39,280
cheat and hear what you have to say no no no no you already yeah you gave away

545
00:37:37,119 --> 00:37:42,160
your hand what no no it hit me with your opinion no no you said you have one you

546
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:48,240
have to do it um i don't really care okay because in my

547
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:51,839
opinion how this should all be handled and how i

548
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:57,359
think things in general should all be handled is i don't personally in my

549
00:37:54,880 --> 00:38:01,760
personal morality whatever like the idea of the governmental hand

550
00:37:59,839 --> 00:38:07,119
coming down and slapping okay i would prefer that he joined the

551
00:38:04,079 --> 00:38:09,119
platform yep people saw that video and

552
00:38:07,119 --> 00:38:14,320
everyone unsubscribed and everyone stopped giving us money and

553
00:38:11,359 --> 00:38:18,560
stopped giving him money here's the here's the lead of partner management

554
00:38:16,079 --> 00:38:21,440
answer the answer is absolutely yes he would be allowed on the platform

555
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:24,880
because here's the thing about the youtube

556
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:31,440
community guidelines so flow planes guidelines are basically along the lines

557
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:34,079
of legality and there's nothing illegal

558
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:37,119
about walking in that forest and filming something

559
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:40,079
you're not allowed going off trail i don't think it's illegal i think it's

560
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:44,240
just there's lots of signs advising you not to okay yeah um

561
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:48,400
so so as far as i can tell he didn't actually

562
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:51,839
do anything illegal because that's that's one thing

563
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:56,480
you guys have to understand is when running sorry i'm gonna interject for a moment when running Floatplane that's

564
00:38:55,280 --> 00:39:01,200
one of the reasons why it's its own company yes is because our opinions and

565
00:38:59,119 --> 00:39:04,560
Linus media group's opinions don't matter

566
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:08,800
uh we're running the platform i think it's gross

567
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:11,359
i don't like it either not cool with it

568
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:16,400
but that is not my call to make and if float planes

569
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:17,599
if Floatplane's objective is to be the

570
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:23,520
the not um evil overlord then ultimately we have

571
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:26,720
to allow okay because flow plane itself is not

572
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:31,119
going to be a broader community in the same sense

573
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:36,000
that youtube is correct flow plane will be individual creators with their own

574
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:39,280
communities and if his community is fine with it

575
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:43,839
which fascinating they seem to be they seemed

576
00:39:41,599 --> 00:39:47,760
to be it wasn't until this went viral and kind of spread beyond his

577
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:50,800
subscribers that people started sitting up and taking notice of how effed up it

578
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:57,280
was um and if his community is cool with it then ultimately we can

579
00:39:56,400 --> 00:40:02,240
just not watch it not look at it

580
00:40:00,240 --> 00:40:06,160
and kind of hope for the best and like one

581
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:09,599
thing about Floatplane if you're subscribed to this dude

582
00:40:07,839 --> 00:40:14,320
and you're like wow i really don't like that i don't respect him anymore i

583
00:40:12,720 --> 00:40:19,599
really dislike this content and you don't want to see it in your feed anymore

584
00:40:16,720 --> 00:40:22,839
stop actively giving that person money and it won't show up in your feed

585
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:27,839
anymore ever nice timing yeah that was good hell

586
00:40:25,839 --> 00:40:32,240
yeah because that's how the platform's done it's we we aren't going to make

587
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:35,920
flip i'm going to actively pursue people coming on the platform and i have that i

588
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:38,720
like and that i respect because i want them to be on the platform people are

589
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:43,680
asking if we would advertise it it's a great question so flow plane is not

590
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:46,800
designed with a suggested algorithm in

591
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:48,320
fact we do not intend to implement one

592
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:52,560
users would have to opt in they would have to browse creators in order to get

593
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:57,440
suggestions from us there won't be like you finish watching uh a Techquickie

594
00:40:55,040 --> 00:41:00,960
video and then it's like hey

595
00:40:58,720 --> 00:41:05,440
you might also like tech deals here's a here's a sample of tech deals go

596
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:09,520
subscribe to tech deals totally arbitrary example we haven't

597
00:41:07,359 --> 00:41:13,800
talked to him at all about joining the platform sorry had something in my eye

598
00:41:11,599 --> 00:41:15,760
um anyway

599
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:23,440
so there's no mechanism for that um so no we wouldn't we wouldn't have to

600
00:41:20,079 --> 00:41:25,200
advertise it and honestly

601
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:31,119
if i was in charge of that judgment call which i'm pretty sure i am i wouldn't

602
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:36,000
yeah yeah and there's there's yeah

603
00:41:32,839 --> 00:41:39,040
anyways so essentially yeah

604
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:41,280
our opinions don't uh zahee zahi funny

605
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:45,119
enough tech deals is a real channel i didn't know that whoa what

606
00:41:43,839 --> 00:41:52,560
holy it's like you were referencing something really specific but without even knowing

607
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:53,599
about that oh darn um

608
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:57,920
okay anyway um okay you know what

609
00:41:56,720 --> 00:42:04,240
okay do you have anything else to add here um no essentially our our opinions won't

610
00:42:02,240 --> 00:42:07,920
govern what ends up being unfolding hopefully our opinions will

611
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:12,079
drive certain people to join because we're like hey we like you will you join

613
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:19,680
door is going to be somewhat open to creators to join if they want

614
00:42:18,240 --> 00:42:24,560

heck yeah it's helpful i'm all about being i let them know you know it's like we're

628
00:43:18,319 --> 00:43:22,400
getting paid by squarespace have you thought about doing another honest

629
00:43:21,359 --> 00:43:27,760
answers why is that not working i don't know why that's not like another honest answers

630
00:43:25,599 --> 00:43:30,880
on maybe how adsense is going right now because everyone has been talking about

631
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:34,960
it i don't know if it's as interesting yeah

632
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:38,000
i don't know i don't know if it's like it's not as punchy as some of the other

633
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:41,920
honest answers yeah and i kind of have another one planned about sort of how we

634
00:43:40,319 --> 00:43:47,040
handle sponsored content because i think there's been a lot of misunderstandings that people have had

635
00:43:45,119 --> 00:43:50,560
so we've had people get upset about a sponsored review and i kind of look at

636
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:54,880
it and i go well this didn't say review anywhere in it it wasn't structured like

637
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:59,200
a review um and we said right up front by the way this is sponsored which you

638
00:43:57,119 --> 00:44:05,280
should assume whether it's called a review or not that anything sponsored is

639
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:10,480
not a review um so that was something that i kind of wanted to talk about um

640
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:13,440
in my opinion in in yeah i think that's the next episode of honest answers that

641
00:44:12,079 --> 00:44:19,599

690
00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:43,599
so posted by walthar on the forum

691
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:48,160
uh oneplus had uh it appears to be a credit card breach

692
00:47:45,119 --> 00:47:49,040
uh update january 19th update number two

693
00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:53,680
thank you for your comments we're reading each and every one and we appreciate your feedback we do want to

694
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:56,720
clarify only potentially affected users will receive the email

695
00:47:55,839 --> 00:48:01,440
but in a nutshell um oneplus has emailed

696
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:04,720
nearly 40 000 of their customers to inform them that their credit card data

697
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:09,920
may have been compromised here's what i want to know like we've discussed this

698
00:48:07,119 --> 00:48:14,880
because back with Linus tech tips other than subscriptions on the forum

699
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:17,680
there was no reason for us to ever need people's payment information in one of

700
00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:22,160
the rules hold on even then we didn't hold it one of the reasons that we opted

701
00:48:19,599 --> 00:48:25,760
for paypal was that it allowed us to take payments in a recurring fashion

702
00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:31,280
without holding the customer's payment information ourselves because we don't

703
00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:35,760
want that responsibility and why would we need it we got owned once did we like

704
00:48:33,839 --> 00:48:40,079
remember a long time ago oh that thing yeah and like that was kate and there

705
00:48:37,839 --> 00:48:42,240
was no payment information and there was no

706
00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:45,280
full-time developers on the site and stuff which is part of the reason why we

707
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:50,240
got owned but there was no payment information they didn't get anything yes we got nothing so

708
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:53,839
i'm looking at this going like okay so right we've discussed it

709
00:48:51,599 --> 00:48:55,599
with flow plane we found other solutions um

710
00:48:54,720 --> 00:49:00,480
but still on Floatplane we will hold

711
00:48:58,559 --> 00:49:04,319
no i don't want it payment information i don't want any of it i don't want that liability

712
00:49:02,559 --> 00:49:09,280
that's horrible that's horrible because then we might have to send out this email then then i don't want to send an

713
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:13,040
email then the level one tax podcast might be talking about flow play media

714
00:49:11,359 --> 00:49:15,920
and their breach of a hundred thousand customers i want them to talk about

715
00:49:14,559 --> 00:49:19,520
floor plan media yeah but not our customer credit card yeah no no no no we

716
00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:24,000
don't want that other things that's terrible um why do they want this why

717
00:49:22,240 --> 00:49:28,800
are they keeping it because who buys

718
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:32,559
from one plus in a recurring fashion like are we talking the world's most

719
00:49:30,319 --> 00:49:37,280
forgetful people who lose their their dash charger all the time and they just

720
00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:39,920
have like a like you know that's oh wow a dash button

721
00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:43,760
and they just have like a like a one plus equivalent

722
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:48,160
of a dash button to get a new dash charger like why would they want this

723
00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:51,920
are those still a thing i haven't heard about dashboards i don't know if they work in canada

724
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:56,160
though oh um so one of their servers was infected

725
00:49:54,079 --> 00:50:00,079
with a malicious script affecting the payment page code collecting credit card

726
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:03,359
info while it's being entered oh okay so that whole rant was over nothing because

727
00:50:01,839 --> 00:50:07,040
it was while it was being entered it operated intermittently capturing and

728
00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:11,119
sending data directly from the user's browser and it has since been eliminated

729
00:50:09,119 --> 00:50:14,480
so anyone who entered their credit card on oneplus.net wow that whole rant i

730
00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:20,319
wish we could cut it out between mid-november 2017 and january 11

731
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:22,160
2018 could be affected credit card info

732
00:50:20,319 --> 00:50:27,280
including card numbers expiry dates and security codes entered like what is the

733
00:50:24,240 --> 00:50:29,520
point of that security code anymore when

734
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:33,440
pretty much everyone online makes you enter it the thing about this is like

735
00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:42,000
you know that from from having worked at a retailer we don't need it to process

736
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:42,000
it costs more to process without it oh

737
00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:47,920
yeah yeah baby interesting huh

738
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:51,440
that's why every single person takes it so that's why everyone takes it even

739
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:55,920
though the whole point of that is supposed to be that it's like a second

740
00:50:53,119 --> 00:50:59,520
factor proving that you have physical access to the card

741
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:05,040
anyone who paid via a saved credit card should not be affected okay so that's

742
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:09,200
what you get for saving your credit card on websites don't do that and users who

743
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:12,880
paid via the credit card via paypal method those won't be affected because

744
00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:17,920
their credit card is abstracted through paypal no no they're saying users who paid via

745
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:21,119
a saved credit card should not be should not be effect oh wait oh right because

746
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:24,720
it's only when you enter not entering okay okay why do we even well you know

747
00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:28,640
what why do we even do news we should just banter forget it yeah so they're

748
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:32,720
working with payment providers to implement a more secure credit card payment method and they're offering one

749
00:51:31,359 --> 00:51:37,280
year of credit monitoring for those affected that's nice because that's not cheap

750
00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:41,760
like i have i have had to deal with credit card theft before

751
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:45,359
me too very recently yeah sucked a lot it's like a big bummer and then

752
00:51:44,079 --> 00:51:48,160
all the accounts that you have auto subscribing are like

753
00:51:48,240 --> 00:51:56,400
everything is cancelled uh this is posted by ag 1233 on the forum nintendo

754
00:51:53,599 --> 00:52:00,640
announces cardboard yes switch controllers wait what no

755
00:51:58,720 --> 00:52:03,599
a label for switch it's not switch controllers build it yourself cardboard

756
00:52:02,079 --> 00:52:09,280
kits compat sorry excuse me cardboard kits compatible with nintendo switch

757
00:52:06,240 --> 00:52:11,920
so okay sorta

758
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:16,160
not a great title a lot of people in my opinion have been

759
00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:20,480
misrepresenting this you get a game you get software on the switch and then

760
00:52:18,559 --> 00:52:23,680
you get a cardboard kit to build something that goes along with that game

761
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:29,760
so that you have interesting types of physical interaction with the game you get a game

762
00:52:28,079 --> 00:52:34,720
okay everyone's like oh they're just selling cardboard no okay so here's an

763
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:39,520
example you could make a functioning 13 key piano cradle yeah for the switch con

764
00:52:37,839 --> 00:52:43,200
you make a functioning 13 p piano that cradles the switch console and the right

765
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:46,960
joy con controller the ir motion camera and the joy con

766
00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:51,040
detects which keys are pressed and plays each note through the console's speakers

767
00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:54,079
and there's other stuff you can take control of your very own motorbike by

768
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:57,920
constructing a functioning set of handlebars with a joy-con inserted in

769
00:52:56,319 --> 00:53:02,240
each side and the switch console in the middle so just to add a caveat here too

770
00:53:00,559 --> 00:53:05,599
you might not be into it and that might be super fair

771
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:09,520
but so many people are just like oh they're just selling cardboard no there's games that go with it i

772
00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:13,760
misunderstood i thought it was a controller in the sense that there was

773
00:53:11,119 --> 00:53:19,040
cardboard and stuff but you just use your joy con and the switch as the stuff

774
00:53:15,839 --> 00:53:21,200
got it yeah okay sure why not i mean i

775
00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:24,880
i'll confess i went out there and i bought one of those um one of those

776
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:28,720

backpack thing yeah you want to see when she takes the thing off the back so yeah

800
00:54:59,920 --> 00:55:05,440
hold up shotgun yeah

801
00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:08,400
there okay oh but you don't get to see the construction part wait wait let it

802
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:11,920
let it go let it go we already watched this part because she takes off the back and it

803
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:16,079
shows you how it works no no no no just wait just wait yeah

804
00:55:14,079 --> 00:55:20,640
okay okay cool so

805
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:24,400
he has a joy-con on each of his ankles and he has a joy-con in each of his

806
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:28,400
hands and they're connected by strings through that box on the back and those

807
00:55:26,079 --> 00:55:32,400
switches go up and down so it knows he's moving right and his movement in real

808
00:55:30,319 --> 00:55:35,599
life goes into the game it has four points of

809
00:55:33,839 --> 00:55:39,920
it's actually kind of cool it's kind of cool um

810
00:55:37,119 --> 00:55:43,359
you know they're all hopefully games hopefully vr

811
00:55:41,599 --> 00:55:48,720
gets better and cheaper enough that we can just do it that way pretty soon yeah

812
00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:52,960
but i guess this is a um so that that's one of the criticisms that i think is

813
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:57,599
relatively valid is it shows the two kits there at the end yeah they're like

814
00:55:55,200 --> 00:56:02,480
69 and 79 dollars so 70 and 80 dollars yeah and i believe

815
00:56:01,119 --> 00:56:08,640
the games that are gonna come with it are gonna be pretty mini gamey right

816
00:56:06,079 --> 00:56:12,880
um whereas they could have done a lot more with it but then we also don't know

817
00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:18,319
what the games are like sure so there could be more to it i don't i suspect

818
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:19,520
the piano one is just gonna be a piano

819
00:56:18,319 --> 00:56:25,440
that you can key into i don't think there's gonna be like many like a lot of mini games with

820
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:30,079
it stuff but we'll see so last topic we had um we had a lot of people really

821
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:33,680
upset with us about one of the videos we posted at ces

822
00:56:32,079 --> 00:56:38,720
uh where we said there was an undisclosed number of cores in a laptop

823
00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:42,720
why do we get [ __ ] for that uh we got flack for that because people were like

824
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:47,280
well here there was um there was a comment that i have where did i see it i

825
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:51,599
like just saw it someone in the chat maybe on the phone you're paying 70 for

826
00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:56,880
cardboard oh my god i'm going to have an aneurysm

827
00:56:54,559 --> 00:56:59,720
um anyway someone was really upset they're

828
00:56:58,240 --> 00:57:04,000
like if it's too embargoed to say how many then you just

829
00:57:02,240 --> 00:57:07,359
shouldn't post it and i'm like what would you not get excited about like

830
00:57:05,599 --> 00:57:11,920
cool unreleased tech um anyway

831
00:57:09,040 --> 00:57:16,240
in unrelated news uh there's a rumor on chippell.com

832
00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:21,599
that Intel will be bringing six core processors to mobile six core 12 thread

833
00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:24,359
processors word on the street is that we're going to see an i5 8300h all the

834
00:57:23,599 --> 00:57:29,680
way to 8850h and that would be a 2.6 base 4.3

835
00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:34,160
boost uh oh wait sorry this isn't oh this is

836
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:38,160
wow this is really unclear apparently there may also be about an i9 hk

837
00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:43,680
what that does for up to 4.8 boost 6 core 12

838
00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:48,319
thread sick wow that sounds awesome

839
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:53,319
um all right cool so this is coffee lake h

840
00:57:56,640 --> 00:58:02,799
that was it not that i

841
00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:02,799
saw anything

842
00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:10,319
in unrelated news did we talk about the apple thing i

843
00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:14,960
don't think so um which one at the very top i don't remember and and the samsung

844
00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:18,319
yeah there's kind of boring faster memory in apple's bringing some

845
00:58:16,799 --> 00:58:22,240
money back over to the states because the states was like new laws on taxes

846
00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:25,839
and they were like okay leo laporte's company is suing twitter oh uh because

847
00:58:24,559 --> 00:58:29,040
apparently they reached an agreement back in like 2009

848
00:58:27,839 --> 00:58:32,960
um because look uh leo laporte was

849
00:58:31,040 --> 00:58:38,960
concerned that twitter was going to start serving audio visual content and

850
00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:43,920
that their that their their trademarks were too similar and that twit was audio

851
00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:47,760
visual so he was like well you know we can co-exist as long as

852
00:58:46,079 --> 00:58:53,280
you guys don't serve audiovisual content but then now twitter serves video so uh

853
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:53,280
he's suing twitter

854
00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:59,839
so that's interesting i i really do wonder where that lawsuit goes because

855
00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:04,880
isn't it an acronym for this week in tech not a word

856
00:59:02,559 --> 00:59:08,079
but um it doesn't matter because the trademark twit

857
00:59:06,640 --> 00:59:13,520
is theirs so yeah i mean i don't i don't personally

858
00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:16,400
think that most people even know what twit is

859
00:59:15,119 --> 00:59:21,760
but um i mean if you're on i believe air canada

860
00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:27,280
flights and you go to the podcast section wow i believe there is a leo

861
00:59:24,799 --> 00:59:31,680
laporte thing about something the savagery is real

862
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:36,640
yeah um and on that note um thank you for watching we will see you guys again

863
00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:38,000
next week same bats time same batch

864
00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:42,079
channel he does have a fair point though like they did agree not to do it and

865
00:59:39,839 --> 00:59:45,040
they are doing it so i don't know where this is especially if there's an

866
00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:48,319
agreement between them i don't know where this is going man he probably has

867
00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:52,319
a lot of clout but then twitter might just have enough money to just be like

868
00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:56,240
no go away or maybe they don't i don't know depends i don't think they make money

869
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:59,440
yeah they don't make money so it depends if someone will give them money to give

870
00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:05,520
to anyway yeah bye but yeah i think because he has an

871
01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:06,960
agreement he's gonna get something

872
01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:11,520
i think it's kind of ludicrous that that's a thing at all but he has an

873
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:14,799
agreement so apparently i always look like i'm having

874
01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:19,520
a really bad time doing this i like the WAN Show i don't think you do

875
01:00:20,079 --> 01:00:25,920
i enjoy the show yeah i want us to talk about meltdown you guys talked about it

876
01:00:23,599 --> 01:00:30,319
the other week right oh like AMD getting sued yeah i mean

877
01:00:28,400 --> 01:00:34,480
yeah it was one of our topics but it's it's related to that thing that i

878
01:00:32,079 --> 01:00:40,799
brought up the last time yeah but now AMD no like actually oh

879
01:00:37,359 --> 01:00:43,799
oh okay yeah oh um well maybe next week

880
01:00:40,799 --> 01:00:43,799
bye
