That's not the right icon...

YouTube, LinusTechTips logo looks nothing like that.
Come to think of it, what channel is that even?

Maybe you're watching a stolen video. Hopefully there will be less of those after I lose my ability to earn $2.70 over the course of multiple years.

No, when I un-fullscreen-ed it it was definite LTT, just the little overlay icon was wrong. Here's proof in another video:
My. Guess is that the icon shown is the Google plus profile picture and not the channel's.

@tsaukpaetra The watermark is uploaded in a different part of the YouTube UI than the avatar.

But that watermark is applied by the YouTube app itself, it's not embedded in the video at all.

Yes, but your watermark isn't the same file as your channel's avatar.

Huh. Well TIL.
Why would they choose that as the watermark then? Perhaps we'll never know...

They apparently have three different logos/icons for the channel. The orange circle with text, the little cat cartoon, and the three hexagon one which looks actually designed.

Yeah the "branding icon" is different from the avatar and Linus has had that particular one for several months now. I'm surprised you never noticed it until now. The branding icon is typically expected to have transparency and alpha transparency, etc.

Shows how often I watch, eh? ;)

I don't even understand what the complaint is...

@Jaloopa
That little cat-on-linus-head icon is the branding icon, but @Tsaukpaetra expected it to match the channel icon which looks like this:

Why the fuck do those stupid overlay icons exist anyway? I hate them so much.
