  He doesn't make false claims, but he also doesn't tell people they'll be used as a botnet. Feels like something that would be relevant to know.

    As far as I know, while they might be using a botnet to geo-unblock streaming sites (which is what many VPNs do, and at least somewhat shady/ethically dubious if it happens without explicit user consent of the users whose devices/networks are being used), there isn't any evidence for NordVPN users being used as a botnet.

  That original video, however, was extremely one-sided and was by and large shared around by people who believed there was absolutely no reason to use a VPN. In the second video, he of course has to address this, and just backhandedly blames a segment of his viewers for this; but, of course, he had never bothered to provide any clarification or correction in the years since he had posted the prior video, instead deciding to enjoy the benefits of his video becoming a tool to back up misinformation right up until he had an actual incentive to move to the other side. This is the hallmark of a dishonest individual who cares much more about their bottom line than the content they post.
