Video 2 (CONTENT WARNING: Torture, SA)
I’m not much for YouTube drama but never liked Mr. Beast’s child lotteries and wealth glorification. If you wanted to improve society you could put that money into actual charity, but of course that isn’t a profitable strategy. Oh well.
For a period of time illegal lotteries were fairly common on YouTube. I don’t know if anyone got in trouble for them but they mostly disappeared from the big channels as creators realized or were told “Oh shit, this is actually illegal.”
