Sure, maybe. If your issue is with advertisting-as-propaganda, the Internet is going to seem like post-apocalyptic wasteland. I think the net utility of Rober's channel stands though, as I'd imagine that there are a number of kids who have become actively engaged in engineering/STEM projects/or even moviemaking due to his influence. I know that he also guides an online course where anyone, of any age, can learn engineering concepts and apply them by following along with some of his builds during the course. Hell, I got into programming at a very young age (10 or 11) to figure out how to make a Counter-Strike themed website for me and my friends. Programming now affords me a comfortable life. TL;DR: Exposes kids to engineering in an engaging way, at the cost of advertising to them. There are much darker places on the Internet.
