One of the more surprising allegations: That security infiltrated a #FreeBritney rally in 2019 with undercover investigators to identify fans (This was also allegedly billed to Britney’s estate).

Recording conversations in a private place and mirroring text messages without the consent of both parties can be a violation of the law. It’s unclear if the court was aware of or had approved the surveillance.

FX Documentaries retweeted
“Britney acknowledges in the text that she’s stuck in this Catch 22. She says, ‘How am I supposed to know whether I want to hire you if I’m not even able to meet with you first?’ And Jamie and security had monitored all of this.”

“‘She said she feels her father is obsessed with her, in the sense he wants to control everything about her. Any mistakes resulted in very harsh consequences, Britney said.’”
