on the internet/social media, or the dark web. I have a hunch as to what they are trying to do, but it needs to be thoroughly investigated. What damned creeps. Just an extension of ICE Tactics and may well be an attempt to perversely counter the protests against the former.

4. Sociopathy masquerading as journalism

Only thing new about this is tv news is covering it (which is a good thing). It is a very well established movement of sociopath activists looking to profit off of offensive confrontations on Youtube.
They masquerade as "first amendment auditors". They claim to be stress-testing the first amendment but are simply emotionally abusing the public for profit.
Search for "frauditor" to see how big a problem this has become.
Their achilles heel is that YouTube requires a permission/release from people that are identifiable in videos. They lose the ability to profit if these complaints are verified by YouTube. Their bad faith dedication to "free speech" will become obvious. If they can't monetize the video, they will go away.
