LPL owns Covert Instruments, who employs McNally, the YouTuber who got sued in this case. Probably not a coincidence that Covert Instruments wasn't named in the lawsuit.
- jonhohle 1y agoI wonder if McNally knows a lawyer familiar with lock picking ;-)
- slenk 1y agoOh sweet never knew there was a connection between LPL and McNally - I just notice they always cut their shims from cans the same way
- SAI_Peregrinus 1y agoThere aren't that many ways to cut a shim from a can that work and don't take excessive effort. It's a rounded hook shape, with a handle piece trimmed so you don't cut yourself.
- slenk 1y agoWell they make it look easy I always end up cutting myself
- johnisgood 1y agoI think McNally was in at least one of his videos if I remember correctly.
- jonny_eh 1y ago> Probably not a coincidence that Covert Instruments wasn't named in the lawsuit What's the non-coincidence?
- sgerenser 1y agoThat they avoided naming the lawyer or the lawyer's company in their bogus lawsuit and instead only named the non-lawyer.
- jonny_eh 1y agoHe can still defend his employee, right?
- JonathonW 1y agoMy understanding is that LPL is not still practicing (he says he's retired, to focus on security work), but I'd guess he knows someone, if McNally didn't already have his own lawyer.
- MBCook 1y agoEven if he was practicing, if he were to take this case it would pretty obviously expose who he was. So no matter what I would expect LPL would get someone he knew/equivalent to take the case.
- CSMastermind 1y agoI mean, it's not exactly a secret. If you really want to know you can look it up online. He even has a whole talk he gives about why he generally doesn't reveal his identity. People send him packages with trackers hidden in them, hire private investigators to follow him with bogus stories, etc.
- asveikau 1y agoIn addition I've seen LPL refer to "my friend Trevor McNally" in a couple of videos.
- hengheng 1y agoThat explains so much. Done to well for a goof channel, eclectic assortment of skills ("tactical garden trowel" vs fully equipped metal shop vs perfect video production), all fat trimmed off the videos. I kinda want tvtropes to put a name on his slapstick humor. It's like looking over the shoulder of that weird uncle that seems to live in an entirely different world.
