While trading today I heard a stalker say that the Monolith had a double agent in it, knowing it was bullshit I ignored the thought, but then it came back to me, Can a Major faction have a double agent? Would it make a good roleplay with the idea of sabotage, and intel gathering? Can you really begin espionage and become a spy?
Monolith are getting brainwashed before they join... That's kinda impossible.

I said I knew it was bullshit, but not entirely impossible if enough high tech gear was used such as a the kind of psychic field nullifier like what Strelok used, but even then you would be spotted
I joined the military from Freedom. Probably not as a double agent but I'm leaving that option open in case I need a deus ex machina excuse to get back into Freedom.
My Military-Mercenary was a double agent. (This was before the wipe.)
I'd become friends with Freedom, and gain information from them. Then go to the military camp, and sell the information.
Because my old merc was a well-known Mercenary (Stanislav Yakov) he was granted information from the higher ups of the Military, so I'd go back to Freedom and sell the information to them!
I was never discovered, lol.
Anyway, back on-track, I don't think it would be possible to have a Monolith double-agent, because of what Akira said.
I'm not sayings its impossible to prevent the brainwash effects from the monolith, only that its impssoble to think that you can infiltrate them if you do, and yeah I agree that the idea to sell information or perform a assassination through espionage isn't impossible if done right, most people will look at the flag and say in character "OMG SPAH PEW PEW U DIE!!!"
Well, before the brainwash we make sure to clear you for bugs, radio, etc.
At this stage you should be pretty fucked up anyways, because I probably hit you with a shovel beforehand.
