The plan was to ingratiate oneself into the team working on the next big brief to fuck the environment, or the people, etc. THEN the night BEFORE the brief is due the "insider" will do shit like dump a virus into the computers or break the copy machines or fax machines to tank the effort. POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!!!
Ever break a fax machine?

As an outsider, you can throw yourself against the armor of The Machine over and over, and you'll just end up another bug smashed on The Man's windshield. But once you're on the inside, all you need to do is remove a few key bolts, and The Machine will come crashing down upon itself in a cataclysm that is as beautiful as it is violent. More than a few Innocents will certainly be lost in the wreckage, but out of the ashes of The Machine will arise a new Hope, and without the numbing consumerism of the Post-Capitalist Consumption Society, minds and souls will be free, the boundaries between art and everyday life will be erased, and each person's every act will be an expression of pure egalitarian creativity and Love. It will be like the world that we read about on Instagram.
