Could someone ELI5 the problem and what's going on? (I don't have good enough internet to watch videos ATM)

A bit more objective than the other guy: their lab testing seems to be inaccurate at times and the way they correct mistakes they spot is questionable (for example just adding a comment and pinning it on the video). Also it seems they sold /auctioned something that was not supposed to be theirs to begin with. Some prototype waterblock. Also it seems there are two different stories about the issue and the compensation for the company who owned what was sold. And up until now, the story that LTT gave out seems to be the dishonest/questionable one.

They have been misleading people for years with inaccurate test results and reviewing products when they have a conflict of interest.

LTT isn't making sure their info is correct. They also can't be trusted to give stuff back.
