Hacking is "sexy" and sensational, but if you really wanted a corporation's data, wouldn't it be easier to just get your agent hired as an Ops person at your target?

- seppin 10y agowhy not both? (they do both)
- M_Grey 10y agoEasier? Maybe not. An agent can betray you, even if only to say, "I'm an agent!" Humans require handlers and are unpredictable in their actions and circumstances, and of course they can always suddenly flee or die. You have to deal with people, contact people, leave traces with people. A failure to hack is almost always going to be just... a failure to hack. A failure to turn an asset or a turned asset... yikes.
