  Something interesting here is whether your right to protest extends to being paid to protest. If it can be shown an NGO is paying you to engage in a disruptive protest, are you really exercising some kind of human right? IDK, that seems new. It doesn't strike me as being in the spirit of the protected right.

    Free choice of employment is article 23.1 in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights: > Everyone has the right to work, to free choice of employment, to just and favourable conditions of work and to protection against unemployment. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_to_work https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_to_work

      Not really relevant. A plumber may have the human right to work (granting such a thing makes any sense for arguments sake), but if someone pays him to cut off the water supply to a neighbourhood, he can hardly defend himself by invoking that right. Someone who is paid to agitate---I dont know if they can then invoke the human right to protest. Is that really in the spirit of law?
