The fact that people actually do this defies me. Also, the comments on the videos tells of a sorry state of how some people think these days.
I was keen to find out if it was just me that cannot relate this type of activity.

I agree, to me auditing is something carried out by a professional.
In order to carry out their roles, these YouTube "auditors" should also be qualified and licenced, to give their description some credit.
These qualifications should be internationally recognised, so I suggest their activities should be practiced in various countries such as in the Middle East, South America, Africa, Asia etc.
North Korea would be an ideal location for them.
Sadly, it would appear to be another corruption of a credible British word from America.
