He has been on youtube for nearly 10 years making videos, and as he gained success, he started to work with more and more people to do even more amazing work.
Watch one of his initial videos (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1P6K_PaS0A) and compare to his work now.

He also pollutes the environment with all of his projects. Filling his swimming pool with plastic balls for views.
I don't think any body cares about that. Specially when you can collect the plastic balls (because it's in your pool) and recycle it (which I'm sure he did, I don't think he dumped it in his kitchen trash can). He also uses biodegradable glitter.

Thanks for pointing this out. I've enjoyed quite a few of Mark's videos over the years. He's clearly smart and talented, but it was unsettling how insanely productive he seemed to be. That sort of thing naturally creeps into my subconscious and not in a healthy way. He mentions the people he works with but the videos are still presented in a way that makes them feel like a single person production. I should've figure…

This is clearly marketing, and clearly good one. From what I can tell, it's a course that was mostly produced by someone else and will be delivered by someone else, but they recorded Mark Rober - the guy famous on YouTube for glitterbombing people - as the instructor. But their FAQ already states that he will "be able to" look at what students are doing and "may occasionally [..] give feedback", so most likely he won…

This guy is doing a lot to pollute the environment just to get views on YouTube. Filling a swimming pool with plastic balls is one example. Has he heard of plastic pollution?

After his latest video I was wondering if his recording of the thieves in their homes runs afoul of wiretapping laws. I can appreciate that someone who just stole a package probably isn't likely to try to press charges, but made me wonder if he is just assuming that risk. Maybe the box has a 'shrinkwrap' license agreeing to be recorded?
Surely there are provisions in the law for this? Otherwise I could just go to your home, steal one of your wireless security cameras, place it in my house and have you charged with wiretapping?
I mean, if instead of glitter and fart spray the thing was wired specifically to explode and kill the thief, the argument "they stole my explosives and blew themselves up" won't hold water.
I'm curious what a court would rule on this matter - anywhere from fart spray over property damage to death.

Biodegradable glitter is a marketing scam, fyi. https://www.getlemonhead.com/blog/the-truth-about-bio-degrad...

I'd recommend watching those videos before knocking him for the glitter bombs. They are impressively engineered, with entertaining videos which contain a good deal of detail about how, why, and in the most recent version, how they are working with law enforcement to crack down on package thieves.
If you’re into this type of engineering check out “stuff made here” or “BPS Space”.
