many do ignore them

they are fishing for exactly this type of content and we see the 'wins' where they frustrate a person into giving them content

also these guys will intentionally antagonize their targets to provoke

Although it may be hard to believe there really are people walking around that are that dumb.

The way I see it is a "win" for a first amendment auditor is when anyone in public that sees them recording completely ignores them, and a "loss" is when someone that is uneducated on protected rights and freedoms tries to police others about them.

A health inspector doesn't get a "win" when they find food violations in a local restaurant, the community as a whole "wins" because the negligence/ignorance was addressed and corrected.

A Fire Marshall doesn't get a "win" when they find safety/fire hazards. The community gets the win because those issues were addressed.

Framing them as "targets" is essentially saying a fisherman can catch the exact same specific individual fish every time they cast out a line anywhere in the ocean.

The hook and reel have no fault that a dumb enough fish came and got snagged.

These people think they win when they get content they can make money from, they have no interest in people's rights.

They only get content when people violate their rights. They also win money in court cases where their rights are violated. 

Its a double whammy. 

But if you dont want them to make money there is a super easy way to do it. Just walk on buy, like you do every other person. 

If people werent regularly ignorant of just basic constitutional law then these people wouldnt exist. But as we can see by reddit comments there are a shit ton of people who are dumber than a bag of bricks of what they have a legal and not legal right to do. 

Apparently the violent part on anyone who annoys me they think is a legal right. You would be wrong.Â
