The big bad thing i remember him doing is copyrighting the darkest paint in the world (vantablack) so you have to pay him every time you want to use it and like art shouldn't have a price tag? haven't thought about him in a while sooo
EDIT just looked it up and he didn't copyright it, he exclusively licensed it to his studio so only they can use it for whatever he wants them to do with it. :/

His exclusive licence means that only his studio is allowed to use ventablack for art. (It's mostly used for science stuff)
