Are they pressure testing the First Amendment, or are they just trying to cause problems?

First Amendment Auditors, known as frauditors online, are a blight on their local post offices, police stations, public meetings, and even private businesses. Convinced they have a right to record anything they can see and mistaking every area open to the public as a public forum, these agitators stick cameras in people's faces, post their angry interactions online, and -- yes -- get trespassed and arrested with regularity. But are they protecting Freedom of Speech and the rest of the Bill of Rights... or are they causing problems that prompt governments to clamp down further on free speech?

In this book, Valerius Publicola explores the origins of the movement, the approach of frauditors to their jobs, and the social implications of First Amendment Auditing. The text also fully explores the tactics and tropes employed by First Amendment Auditors so that you'll know how to spot them (and how to deal with them) should you encounter these provocateurs. In a world where anyone with a smartphone can claim to be a journalist working on an investigation, there has never been a better time than now for this book.

This book is 100% the work of a single human being and contains no AI-generated written content.
