I'm not sure I understand, nope : )

For example, what about a mission that deals with wikileaks. The NGO
wants to help the initiative (because its serves its agenda for whatever
reason), and let's say for example that you would need to secure a chat
conversation (actually, this could be fun - you would for example have
to protect a website from incoming attacks, while being able to
listen/read the conversation). This would be more fun if the
conversation involves Assange, since it is the public face associated
with the initiative.
