So. A scammer hijacks a YouTube channel. Said scammer determines "ah, the best way to find marks for this scam is to turn the channel into 'Tesla' and edit together clips of Elon saying stuff"I don't know what exactly this says about the cult of personality surrounding That Man and That Brand, but it sure says something!

@Archivist @TechConnectify Clearly somebody needs to give Linus some Tech Tips to avoid reoccurrence.

@Archivist @TechConnectify on one hand, yeah. On the other he's apparently a massive data hoarder given the multiple petabyte servers his team has so presumably all the content is on a server somewhere.

@beeoproblem You become a data hoarder very rapidly when dealing with video files, those can easily be 1GB per minute on a good day and reuploading every video will easily take months with all the descriptions and other side content, not to mentions possibly re-rendering them and sorting what was actually supposed to be published and what was not.I can easily see that be months of work for an entire team@TechConnectify
