The video is rather cringe worthy but if you can get past that, the story that is trying to be told is rather worthwhile. Assuming that what is being told is truth it is silly that in 2018 finding parts to our electronics is still so difficult. Having repaired my fair share of iPhones and iPods those devices life span has increased significantly due to non-apple parts from eBay and the like. I can not begin to count the number of times I had to tell people that some parts can not be sourced to repair a very expensive device that is still very much usable if repaired.

I already play with urls that have possible id's in them out of habit. The only difference here is the poor kid was on a gov website and they did not want the information he found to be public. ( Or like in the USA he might have to pay for each document accessed. But I feel that should not result in a raid to his house.) It is a shame the kid was their target and not a google bot like you said.
