    I went into this video expecting it to just be “this service is poor value” or “we had an issue with customer support” but holy shit this is far worse than I expected.

    This is real journalism. A lot of research and effort clearly went into this. They even hired a lawyer to go over some things with them.

    This is definitely a scam from NZXT. And kudos to this channel for cancelling a $23k ad agreement with NZXT when they found out about it.

    I watched this earlier, great coverage!

    Not a lot of people trying to defend consumers in media right now. Glad they’re doing something about it.

      Especially not a lot of influencers willing to bite the hand that feeds them. That’s 23k going bye bye because they’re opted to give us a honest look at this abusive model instead.

      As usual, GN willing to get in there and dig things out.

    Renting a PC is insane in itself but on such terms it’s even worse. I hope the FTC or some other regulatory institution will look into this.
