He did give up some people openly. He bothers me more when he lies on his videos. He's become a showman. Good for him if it makes him money, bad for anyone looking to learn about the Mafia. Often it's impossible to tell when he is telling us truth or fiction. I don't like him, but he is not as bad as Gravano, who totally ratted. I know some will say "If you ratted once on one person you are a total rat." I see it just a bit different,. If anyone feels different, fine. Gravano does know some real stories, as does Franzese, the John Alite total phonies bother me the most. Pennisi is very annoying, and might be the biggest rat out there now. He is still giving fiends up in his videos.
