An undercover cop who infiltrated leftist and anti-capitalist activist groups blew his cover in 2004 when he accidentally dialed one of the activists during a secret police meeting and recorded himself answering questions about the activists.
When the cops realized his mistake, they debated if they should "mount a destructive operation" against the activist groups
