I'm hearing a lot of frustration about Google's "two-phase embargo" for the Google Pixel, especially after this great video here:

The skepticism makes sense because brands have definitely abused this greatly, but I think Google is different.
First, yes, I'm part of #teampixel, but no, I'm not sucking up, being paid to say this, or am I a shill. Let's leave the dumb comments out.

Okay, here's the issue that Google has and it's a rough spot to be in.

1. Google is actually trying to make reviews more equitable.
They want to give phones to influencers in #teampixel but it is a huge risk and liability to do this BEFORE the announcement. The number of people breaking embargo or doing more than what they're supposed to just today should show you how risky it would be to give it out early
