Yeah, but you're not seeing the conversations going on behind the scenes.
This[0] is a great video that dives into how tablet manufacturers manipulate artists into shilling for their products. This kind of behavior is much more commonplace among tech review culture than people want to acknowledge (i.e. companies signing off on review videos before their posted, giving out free samples in exchange for positive reviews, etc.)
Ultimately, the goal of advertising now is to generate advertising content that doesn't look like advertising. Review videos are an incredible vehicle to accomplish this.

- dmix 4y agoYeah I guess the noise to signal ratio is way higher in tech reviews than movie/media world. Maybe there will be a cultural reckoning once customers get wise to it like they have with other sorts of spin. Maybe the zoomer generation who grew up on TikTok will learn to spot bullshit influencer bait a mile away. Kinda like the 90s kids backlash against TV.
