Second Thought | Mark Rober's Prank And The Truth About Scammers And Capitalism @SecondThought | Uploaded June 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.

As satisfying as it is to see these awful places get a small taste of their own medicine, there's something deeper we need to talk about. Scam call centers are just one cancerous offshoot of bureaucracy under capitalism, and while pranking these places may be cathartic, it's not enough to tackle the root cause.
