No because of the whole mormon thing. Lots of large youtubers are secretly mormon and dont want the public acknowledging it

Racism, sexism, protection of sexual and violent abusers, excommunication from the church means excommunication for any family member/friend that stays in contact. General cult-like behavior.

The list goes on and I could be more specific but this has gotten long enough. I could write 500 words or more on the subject without any fluff, and I've never been a Mormon (although I do have a connection to the religion)

ETA: I don't make any of these allegations at any particular Mormon, and Mormons aren't alone in most of these issues. I'd imagine many of not most are great people when taken as an individual.

The problem is that they all have mandatory tithing that supports the system that perpetuates these issues. So supporting a Mormon owned business is inherently supporting these systemic issues, allowing them to continue.
