I once stumbled on a Macbook repair YTer and was blown away by his presentation and diagnosis of a known GPU issue on a 2010 MBP.

He’s still doing good work bringing attention to #ConsumerRightsWiki to categorize #enshittification practices.
Probably going to contribute Highland Pro app I ranted about recently.

@paulywill @pluralistic @jerrej Next time I find myself involved in a crusade, I want to be sure Louis Rossmann is on the same side as me!

He's gotten ahold of a ton of stuff that he's not supposed to have. Schematics. Parts. There was one part in particular-- the vendor sells them with customer-specific part numbers and custom programming. He had that, too.
Not all of the "stuff he shouldn't have" can be explained by bad-board pulls, though that's certainly happening.
It was "of some concern" to Concerned People.

@paulywill @pluralistic @jerrej Rossmann is also a nazi. Among other things, he platformed Moldbug (Curtis Yarvin), one of the OG internet neo-nazis.

@paulywill @pluralistic @jerrej This article is probably the best public source and covers some things I had personal experience with https://drewdevault.com/2025/10/22/2025-10-22-Whats-up-with-FUTO.html
There's some indication, including comments Rossmann posted on Reddit, suggesting that he regrets platforming Moldbug and that Eron Wolf put him up to it and that he's separated from that crowd now. But he's still associated with FULU which is associated with Wolf's FUTO. And he never apologized for the nazi shit, but instead gets mad at people for bringing it up.

@paulywill @pluralistic @jerrej In particular I can't find the YouTube video where he had Moldbug on his channel now, so it seems to have been taken down quietly without retraction or apology.

I don’t know, I read his response and it sounds like they latched on to him and used his name recognition and threw him up on stage when he was running on fumes at an event that sounded exhausting.He clearly states 13 years of work and 3000 videos can argue his stance and political views.
When I read articles that sound like s hit piece written like a Charlie IASIP gif trying to make a case with red yarn and wall pictures it loses a bit of validity.

@paulywill @pluralistic @jerrej It sounds like there are two separate Moldbug incidents, because the apparently-scrubbed one I was aware of was a video he posted to his channel highlighting Moldbug, not just something someone else dragged him into.
I can assure you the blog post I linked is not a "hit piece". The organization it's about, FUTO, is utterly slimy. I'm one of the people they've done slimy shit to, and I know about much worse situations. Rossmann is kinda incidental in it, but he clearly was closely involved with these people and seems to still be thru FULU, and he has not done anything to apologize for that.

@dalias @pluralistic @jerrej That being said…I applaud anyone that takes time to follow the money and or donations and keeping influencers accountable. Had there been no public pressure I’m sure there would still be videos up you mentioned.
