He mostly does pretty short videos, and tends to demo the tools he sells a lot. I don’t think its quite as bad as it sounds, and it’s probably as much just changing trends on YouTube as it is a shift to self promotion, but I do miss his older long videos.
At least the tools his company sells are legitimately very good.
He found an exploit in a lock and documented it on video.
It’s an honest-to-goodness, pre-covertinstruments-dot-com-stylee LPL video that talks about locks for the sake of locks. He didn’t even mention that he sells the Lishi tool he used! Can you believe it? Just like in the old days.
Thanks for calling this out. I’m a bit tired of it as well. Seems that after Bosnian Bill retired he went hardcore commercial. Guess it’s one of the prices (and benefits?) of being popular.
Since he’s not lawyering anymore maybe it could just be lockpockingadvertiser instead?
Oh wow! A LPL video with actual meat on the bone that’s not just a pretext to plug his store. It’s been a few years…
I haven’t watched him in years, but I’m scared of knowing what happened 🥹
