Overview
Operation Fair Game was a covert operation conducted by the Church of Scientology in the 1960s and 1970s to silence critics and opponents, including journalists, politicians, and former members. The operation involved a range of tactics, including harassment, intimidation, and espionage, and was authorized by the church's founder, L. Ron Hubbard. The operation was exposed in the 1970s, leading to a number of high-profile lawsuits and investigations, including a raid by the FBI on the church's headquarters in 1977. Today, Operation Fair Game is widely regarded as a prime example of the church's aggressive and litigious approach to dealing with critics and opponents.
