It wasn't that extreme, there were a lot of questions about how they disclosed their funding. They made multiple videos for the gates foundation, but didn't disclose it until the end of the video, which is considered bad practice.

My understanding is they have some funded videos and some self researched. I lean on the side of, take what they say with a grain of salt and research funding and motives, instead of saying fuck them completely. Of course, if people want to shun them, I won't put up a fight.
