It reminds me of a story about the CSM from EvE Online. The Counsel of Stellar management.
One year a guy made it on the team, He broke the NDA and disclosed alot of what the team was doing to the denizens of EvE Online. He did it in the best way, because it just so happened to be, that the CSM was not corrupt. But even still he felt like his infiltration was necessary because of these bullshit secret oaths and secret orders that govern everyone needed to be exposed.
