      I don’t know, I distrust all YouTube ads content creators slide into their videos, because the products are either useless to me, disappointing in real life like the “fruit smells” rings for water bottles or sketchy with some fear mongering like the VPNs.

      I dunno, I don’t just ignore ads, I find them repulsive, like my scam-alarms go off even when I know that it’s probably a legit product. Seriously unless I get a recommendation from an actual person, the brand I’ve never heard of feels safer to me then the brand I saw a cheap ad for on some janky website. Maybe it’s because so much of the stuff I had growing up was knockoff/store brand, so I’ve hardly ever actually experienced anything that I saw an ad for.
