Russian vlogger Vitaly Zdorovetskiy was arrested in Pasay City last Thursday for harassing several people and stealing items just so he had something to post in his social media account. He makes it a point to shock or insult people to get reactions from them.

He isn't alone when it comes to going to extremes for the views and likes.

Just recently, American content creator Mykhailo Viktorovych Polyakov was also arrested for trespassing in North Sentinel Island in India, trying to make contact with an isolated tribe there. The place he went to is considered one of the most restricted and dangerous areas in the world and the native tribe there has already killed a missionary who had too much zeal but too little common sense.
