I agree. It is better safe than sorry in cases like this. It is a shame that content creators all over, not just YouTube, have to take precautions like this - just in case.
I think there will be an eventual push back at companies for this type of activity which may lead to no coverage, or at least reduced significantly. The problem with that, that I see, is there is always a new set of "newbs" as I like to call them that will suck up to any company that will mention them, give a free copy of a game, or in general make them feel like they are a "part of the gaming scene" on a professional level.
Oh, and -
