Trying to get a grasp on consensus nowadays on any question on the internet is almost impossible.

Way too much astroturfing, shills and what I suspect are semiautomatic bots.

For reviews, Youtube reviews seem to be the best approach. At worst it becomes like a TV shop commercial and you can see that the table saw can atleast actually saw or if it behaves like it would have bad quality.

Some people seem genuine in the 'still too small for money to be made' channels. But it seems like there are not a lot of subscribera needed before they start to make ads for VPNs... so they are approached by marketing quite early.
