Why would he tell people to delete honey? At the time he didn't know about the coupon issue, so in his head it still gave consumers the best deal.
Should he tell people to delete Honey so he can get more money from affiliate marketing?

65k for a sponsored video seems fine? What is the point you are trying to make? It might be interesting to compare it with other forms of advertising.

At what point did he know they were 'stealing from users'? Do you mean the thing where they don't use the best coupon code? Because Linus has stated multiple times he didn't know about, only the affiliate link changing, which only effects creators, not users.

What does history and data have to do with any of this? Of course they would have it.

I feel like a lot of different points are getting conflated and mixed into one point. Which is making it hard to address points.

As for what he should have done given the information he had at the time. Dropping the sponsor seemed ok. Anyone that cares about let sponsors can go to their forum, give feedback, and read why they have dropped sponsors.

He is not saying that at all? He said, at the time he believed that was the case. Which he knows now is not true. But back then he only knew about the affiliate link redirection, which only effected creators not consumers.
