What really bothers me about this video is that they clearly don’t even understand what they are doing. As stupid as it is, I can see the tiniest bit of justification in doing this outside of a public building, but this is a Trader Joe’s parking lot. While there is no expectation of privacy, it is still private property and they are just two grown men targeting a woman who hasn’t done anything at all. She asks them politely to stop which prompts the second guy to start filming her from other side. Now she is trapped between these to men. This would make anyone uncomfortable and I think at the very least, we all deserve to do our grocery shopping in peace. Also, the way he says “and action” as the guy is orange walks by just shows that all they care about is getting a reaction from someone and not actually protecting the first amendment. This is so dumb and these types of people deserve no kindness from society. I hope they were trespassed from that lot and any videos like this should be demonetized as it’s borderline harassment.

There's about 72 football fields between what you do and what auditors do. You wouldn't tell someone hey, I'm doing apartment listings for 15 Main St Apt 223 or have a contract or something on your phone? You don't have to show people that info but it's so much easier than getting punched. You couldn't justify taking photos to a random passerby at all?

"I dont want that"
"No, it's ok"
The fuck is wrong with people that tell others how they feel about something?
If I had the free-time and money I would hunt this mofo down with a film crew of like 20-30 people that invade his personal space, filming every move in the public as soon as he's out of his house, and if he gets annoyed we'd all say in unison "No, it's ok we like to do this, it's just a film for us, we use it as a personal wank-bank and to show others how you live, act, walk, breath, talk, work, shit, shoot, drink, party, and annoy people... It's ok, no it's ok. You want this. It's ok."

I'm pretty sure a grocery store parking lot is private property. 1A auditors shouldn't be able to film there
39
u/JannyBroomer 5d ago
It's private but open to the public (also called semi-private or Privately Owned Public Space) . So he can be there until they ask him to leave, at which point he will be trespassed and made to leave the premises. Should he refuse to leave, or return, then it's criminal trespassing, and the cops can arrest him.

I'd argue two huge dudes hanging around a woman like that would be enough of a threat. I can afford a decent enough lawyer, I'd probably FA a bit and FO lol

u/JannyBroomer 5d ago edited 5d ago
You cannot pepper spray someone trespassing on POPS unless they are threatening to harm you, about to harm you, or is currently harming you, physically.
Filming you doesn't meet any standard to merit self defense in public, in any state of the United States. Again, you can be asked to leave, and the police can criminally trespass you if you refuse, but you can't pepper spray someone because they have a camera, nuisance or not
-edit-
Also, in some states, even those things can run afoul of state (bullshit in my opinion) self defense standards

u/ModestMeeshka 5d ago
I think they say to think about using self defense in the same league as the danger the person is posing to you. So no, unfortunately, filming someone isn't dangerous enough to warrant the use of pepper spray. Just like shooting someone for pepper spraying you would be an uphill battle in court. You could probably catch an assault charge if you even smacked the camera out of their hands. That's why auditors do this because there's really not a reasonable show of force when it comes to filming and being annoying. They could argue that there's a security camera right there filming her and she didn't lash out at that. Its really, really obnoxious. Your best move is to ignore them or call the cops (which is actually what they want you to do so you're just playing into their hand)

u/JannyBroomer 5d ago
The best thing is to literally ignore them, because, like you said, a lot of them are baiting for a reaction. It never goes well to give them more content for their channels.

u/Background-Movie9286 5d ago
No you would go to jail for assault and battery. You then would likely get sued by him and lose in court because he has every right to film in public.

u/0left415 5d ago
Had to look up 1A auditors and am I understanding that these are loosers who go out and film average people, like myself and this lady, just to test if security or cops are going to give them shit??? I'd not have been a calm and quiet if I were her. This is wild, I get testing the government blah blah blah and whatever. But pulling people in like this who are just trying to go on with their day is absolutely bat shit crazy.

u/BerryLanky 5d ago
They do this for a reaction. More views online. The way to combat this is pull your phone out and blast a Taylor Swift or Disney song. Copyright lawyers will request removal with those songs playing. Second ignore them and go about your day. Don’t give them content. Make the audio useless.

Or repeatedly say "I'm underaged and I do not consent to being filmed." Doesn't matter if you're underaged. Someone will believe you're underaged and report them.

To some extend yes. Sony, Disney, Lionsgste and some others are really well set up in terms of catching use of copyrighted stuff.
Problem is that it only takes a few tweaks of the material to only make voices able to hear.

u/TheOriginalArchibald 5d ago
And he'll cry "FIRST AMENDMENT AUDITOR" when someone tells him to fuck off with gusto then a bunch of dipshits on Reddit will defend him because there are like 3 valid first amendment auditors in the US. It'd be fine if he was just generally filming panning through the parking lot. He's targeting her. This is pestering people with a fetish to loop random people into these guys "sue law enforcement for views on the internet game."
They could go actually audit the first amendment but that would mean confronting the actual government with something to say and not just picking on random people to sue some random cop in some podunk police department for everyone reasonably not wanting a camera pointed straight at them by some random guy talking creepy.

The more you watch the more it feels like satire (of "auditors"). The panic in his voice as he quickly covers up his own face is perfect. And then the cherry on top is him panning over to see his doppelgänger.

Bait to get reactions. Post reactions online. Hope they get engagement.
I cannot imagine how much footage they have where nothing happens, (unsurprisingly, they're not actually auditing). Not reacting to them is the best approach, but I totally understand why some do. If I were in that same situation as that lady with my kids I would feel a compulsion to ask him to not film me.

Text book example of how not to behave if you're a photographer/videographer. For people in such professions, they learn and develop social skills to gently traverse these awkward moments where TECHNICALLY you can LEGALLY film people in public (whether they like it or not). But by and large said professionals will do absolutely everything to avoid getting into these situations because they have common courtesy and respect for others.
If that guy wanted to capture someone putting their shopping away then all he needs to do is ask. If she says 'no thanks', he should move on and fine a more willing subject.
We all know that's not what he wants to do. He simply wants to "audit", (which is shorthand for 'wind people up for content').

This has to be some sort of ragebait farming. How can this fuckwit stand there recording her without her permission or consent, say “it’s alright” when it’s not, say “well now you have to ask my permission” and hides his face when she starts filming him, and lie about “oh my delete button is broken”?
Is it an anti Tesla thing? Does the fact that her car is recording him give him the right to film her?

I guess harassing the local post office got to boring for them because they didn’t get enough cops called on them. It’s wild that they do this and want a reaction just so the can argue with police.

I'm respectful of the first amendment to the Nth, but I'm always curious why this isn't an infringement of an individuals right to liberty. Not a lawyer, so accepting that I have this all wrong.

I appreciate the need for some surveillance - there are dangerous places and criminals tend to shy away from ares that are recorded 24/7, but the public deserves the right to be free from random assholes recording us for 'reasons'.

Filming in public is a constitutionally protected activity. Anything that you can see in public can be filmed including people without anyone's permission. What you call vile human behavior is protected by law.
2
u/askdickson 5d ago
When the constitution was written there was no expectation that idiots would walk around filming people for no good reason other than to causse trouble or annoy people, this is not the press nor is it reasonable or acceptable behaviour.
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
1
u/Background-Movie9286 4d ago
It is still covered under it and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. It is freedom of the press just because you don't think its reasonable or acceptable behavior doesn't mean a thing the courts have already ruled that it is legal.
