Ltt didn't hide shit, they posted it on a public forum
They didn't hide it, but a huge portion of their audience doesn't read the forums. A 10 minute video of Linus ranting about them would have opened this scandal to a wider audience years ago.
Linus usually likes to rant about it on the WAN show then they usually make a clip for YouTube, but weird he didn’t do that for honey, maybe he didn’t know how far the scam went.
Could have a non disparagement clause in their former agreement
Not the level of a non-compete clause but that's a scummy thing I hope is not legal.
It's fairly common. As far as legal, that will depend on the jurisdiction and the mood of the judge.
