Jordan van den Berg: The 'Robin Hood' TikToker taking on Australian landlords
bbc.com
Three years ago, lawyer Jordan van den Berg was an obscure TikTok creator who made videos that mocked real estate agents.
But today the 28-year-old is one of the most high-profile activists in Australia.
Posting under the moniker Purple Pingers, Mr van den Berg has been taking on the nation's housing crisis by highlighting shocking renting conditions, poor behaviour from landlords, and what he calls government failures.
It is his vigilante-style approach - which includes helping people find vacant homes to squat in, and exposing bad rentals in a public database - that has won over a legion of fans.
Some have dubbed him the Robin Hood of renters.

No name calling on this sub. You are blocked.
Holy shit my guy. "Someone vaguely disagreed with me and used the same verbiage I used on someone else, time to block them". Touch grass, please, for your sake as much as ours.
Ah, but you see, it's not hypocritical because rules are just weapons to use against your opponents, and we're suckers for not using it against them first. /s
It's better to block people than engage in back and forth that won't go anywhere.
"I'm not here to engage in discussion, I'm just here to make people listen to me and I only want to hear people who agree with me."
Okay then.
