If you don't know what that it, basically Syndicate and Tmartn owned a percentage of a CS:GO gambling company, and made videos on their channel about the site, and in their videos they did NOT put a disclaimer or say anything about them owning a part of it, they said that they're "not being sponsored or anything". (This is illegal btw)Thanks for suming this up, but tmartn and syndicate own the website 50/50 and they created it at the start, the illegal part wasn't they didn't put a disclaimer it was the fact they where telling there fans they found this amazing new website which you're not allowed to do.
Bottom line: Syndicate and Tmartn lied to his fans about a csgo betting site about not owning apart of it, and was sued because it was illegal.
I think Valves shutting betting sites down now because they don't want to get into this shit above.
