Matty Benedetto of Unnecessary Inventions bring a lot of innovations that is not needed and brings a satirical take on objects, but still comes out as one of the most popular YouTubers of the generation.

How Unnecessary are the Inventions?

The inventions are truly unnecessary, but the YouTuber makes it a point that he convinces people why they are essential. One example would be a plug-in keyboard that types the "Password" for one's account. It promises an easily usable password-typer to input it fast and secure.

A person can still use their keyboard for this, so it is unnecessary.

However, another invention that rides between the lines of necessary and unnecessary is a blanket with a leg hole for when it gets hot that was created by the YouTuber.

Matty Benedetto and his Career

Benedetto built his career on making non-sensical things and for this, he gains applause from viewers and fans. The so-called "unnecessary technology" that the YouTuber makes is like a parody of the original item or tech. Benedetto takes on a funny approach, exposing its flaws and giving it another purpose, which the content creator enjoys.

Some inventions from the YouTuber are helpful in the sense that they could have been the next big thing if these had been released years ago. One example would be the mailbox with a built-in shredder for junk mail. However, a person still needs to determine if it the mail they are about to shred is actually junk and not important.

Moreover, snail mail is scarce these days and not many people do it, even for credit card statements or the like.

Matty Benedetto is not only making these inventions for the sake of creating content or money, but it genuinely shows that the YouTuber is enjoying his life in making satirical takes on objects. More importantly, his page contributes to thousands of smiles every day, without even trying that much, as he comes as a natural.
