I don't know, I distrust all YouTube ads content creators slide into their videos, because the products are either useless to me, disappointing in real life like the "fruit smells" rings for water bottles or sketchy with some fear mongering like the VPNs.

Yeah I'm not gonna be paying for NordVPN. They've got this much money for ads and when buying 2 years at a time they're cheaper than, say, Mullvad? Suspicious.

I do like some of the channels' sponsor segments though. Internet Historian is great, OverSimplified can do pretty good ones. The Map Men are pure gold. But I've never bought into anything they've shilled at me, nor do I feel like I want to.
