Absolutely true. I remember every YouTuber and their mother shilling out for LastPass a few years back. Now that their reputstion is kind of in the dumps after several "noncritical" hacks I see those same YouTubers shilling out for Dashlane.

It just gets worse if you try to think of any serious sponsorship program by companies that are, to date, trustworthy. There are none because they don't need them. Word of mouth is good enough for them because the customers they have will stay being customers for a long time. Long enough that they bring in more people just by being happy about the service.

I only saw a decent product once, it was Henson razor. Not sure if it's ethical and fairly priced (those are somewhat hard to tell, imo). If I weren't using it already, the sponsorship would have deterred from trying 😅
