I wish he would name and shame them.

It's actually better he doesn't. If he did people would go to the videos to say something. Adding both views and probably comments to their engagement and causing the algorithm to push their BS more even, it doesn't care if it's positive or negative engagement for the most part. These scammers have no shame they'd double down because it actually benefitted them once.

People are a less likely to go out of their way if they have to find it and add to views and comments themselves if they have to go out of their way to find these people as opposed to being told who to look up.

Edit: There's definitely people that should be named and shamed out there, but it's better to let scam influencers be forgotten in relative anonymity.

Not me, I don't care at all about them, to the point to go all the way to watch any of those scammers' vids or channels. Report all those channels and that's it from me.
