Hello Beijing, we are Anonymous

Break the (fire)walls down!

Here’s an idea for a cosmic level campaign set in Beijing…
The idea involves Anyomous (that proud rebel hacker group) pulling the ultimate stand against the Communist government of China…tearing down the Great Firewall of China, which more or less censors anything the government doesn’t agree with (i.e anything that shows the government in a bad light, telling the people to think for themselves ect…). Leading the operation is a group of anons…but these aren’t any ordinary anons, but ones who are isracmancers, infomancers, lead by a high-level avatar of the Rebel and an infomancer himself…in order to perform their goal, they need to build up a few Major Charges as control of the firewall is really, really tight…
The fun comes in how they are going to get the charges. Using principals of Feng Shui, in very particular spots, a mesh network of devices meant to disrupt communications are being set up by the anons, and a special virus has been made to disrupt activity of the firewall for just a moment…during an important broadcast from the Central Comittee (Say a message from the Party’s Grand Secretary), the devices will activate, cutting off the message and replacing it with a pre-made message reveal a number of the human rights abuses preformed by the government in the last five years alone, all off which will quickly go through China’s cyberspace quickly, and it will be the virus’s duty to attakc the computers of key personel who’s duty it is to censor such dirty laundry. Not only is media bomb this massive going to bring in a major charge for the media barons (perhaps two?), but the furies are going to get more than one major off the anger of the Central Party being directed at the people responsible for this….the Anon leader will then take all of these charges in a prepared area (again set to feng shui principles and at a location only he knows) and use them to not only permanently destroy the Great Firewall, but make sure that no website, blog entry, or video site will ever be blocked in China ever. The sheer amount of Mojo will make that impossible, as any attempts to do so will be magickly altered as if they never happened (what level of unnatural checks would that give if any?) not to mention give the leader the symbolic push towards Godwalker status (if the position isn’t taken already).
All well and good, except for two things.
First is the fact that this is taking place in a country where the number of children born to a family is heavily controlled, and surveillance is thick, if there one screw up while setting up the devices, or someone talks, game over man, game over. The Central Party will send Kung-fu cops to your door and you will have to answer alot of uncomfortable questions and probably be sent to some sort of prison camp where you will wish you were dead…or worse set off the Sleeping Tiger, as it is a light sleeper here (do not be liberal with any charges here!)
Second is that certain people already know what is going on here…and want in for their own ends…
