As content creation gains popularity and people start making it big from YouTube/ Facebook monetization, content creators are becoming increasingly desperate and are willing to do any content to gain followers.

Pranking people on the street has become a common order with no consideration of the victim's emotional/psychological state of mind.

While we watch these videos and enjoy the entertainment part of it, some of the people pranked are left emotionally drained, some relationship/ couples trust has broken because they were pranked to check there faithfulness to each other and some people have lost so much useful information from there phone because a popular prankster smatched it on the ground and gives the victim a new one, not considering some important information in the phone that might be lost in the process.

Of course, some of these guys have landed themselves in trouble because they pranked the wrong person but others are yet to learn there lessons.

Entertainment is not bad, as a matter of fact I enjoy watching them alot but when you ridicule or take advantage of the ignorance of others just to create your content, it becomes a problem.



It is really terrible how some content creators go extra miles just to get views, some use their old grandparents displaying some horrific act just to get people interest, I clear remember one video I came across, it was about a very wealthy guy who left he's parents to suffer in the village while he was enjoying in the city, so when the mother eventually decides to go look for her son she discovered that the son has a mansion in the city do you know when the guy saw he's mother he pushed her mother out of the house and made the mother site on the floor and eat like an animal, an old woman all in the name of content making.
