'My instinct was that it was paparazzi, so I was freaking out a bit wondering whether something awful had happened,' she recalls. At the gates of the 37-year-old's Hertfordshire home was something altogether more unexpected when she investigated: a self-styled 'drone auditor' – there, he claimed, to legitimately take aerial footage of her property.] [In reality, however, most are aiming for something else: what Luisa calls 'rage bait', meaning they hope to provoke a confrontation with angry occupants, film it and upload it to social media platforms such as YouTube or TikTok, which can bring in thousands of pounds of advertising revenue. Those with the most popular channels can reportedly earn £5,000 from each of their most highly viewed clips. 'It's incredibly cynical,' Luisa says. 'As with my case, these people usually make a point of letting you know they are there, claiming they are being polite. But in fact it's a device to make you react, because that's what gets the clicks.' The more indignant the landowner, the better. It is perhaps little surprise that this disquieting new craze started in the US, where practitioners claimed falsely to be undertaking 'first amendment audits' to test if a site meets its constitutional obligations.] ![]() ![]() [Harry Holton trained at Rugby College on a professional cookery course] H.
