Line 67:
** It is a conspiracy incorporating most of the major world governments, and probably every single space program. And what holds it all together? Nondisclosure agreements.
** The show includes two straighter examples, in the NID and later "The Trust", that are ''even more'' secret than above-mentioned programs. The first goes to far and gets taken down by the heroes, while the second one gets infiltrated by Goa'uld.
* ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine|Star Trek Deep Space Nine]]'', and later [[Star Trek: Enterprise]], both feature an organization called Section 31, that's ambiguously part of the government. They're a group of Star Fleet officers who either work for the organization secretly, or just look the other way for them. They basically believe that "[[Knight Templar|The end justifies the means]]", almost literally [[Utopia Justifies the Means]], when it comes to defending [[The Federation]] (or just Earth, in the [[Star Trek: Enterprise]] era). The crew of ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine|Deep Space 9]]'' end up exposing them, after they fail to recruit Doctor Bashir into their organization, and try to commit Genocide on their enemies.
** Section 31 were actually vital to achieving a happy ending for the Dominion War. Because it's explicitly stated (in "Statistical Probabilities", and by a Changeling admitting to their [[Salt the Earth]] strategy) that the Alpha Quadrant would have become a [[Crapsack World]], had Odo not been able to use the cure to broker peace. This, means that Section 31 did a [[Nice Job Fixing It, Villain|Nice Job Fixing it Villain]], and can be seen as [[Designated Villain]]s [[Straw Man Has a Point|Strawmen with a point]].

Line 98:
* ''[[Final Fantasy XIII]]'' {{spoiler|Galenth Dysley, leader of the Sanctum, is actually the fal'Cie Barthandelus and is trying to get our heroes to destroy Cocoon to bring back the Maker.}}
* The original ''[[Max Payne (series)|Max Payne]]'' covered the aftermath of Project Valhalla, a US government-sponsored drug research that was [[Tested on Humans]] during the [[Gulf War]]. There is also the Inner Circle, a group of filthily rich old men who more or less control the US government (and are hinted to have been behind the [[Who Shot JFK?|Kennedy assassination]]).
* ''[[LAL.A. Noire]]'' {{spoiler|The Suburban Redevelopment Fund is burning people's house for their insurance money}}.
** WORSE. {{spoiler|The SRF is goading the stubborn families away from their uninsured homes with rigged vacation lotteries, sending an insane pyromaniac to burn the homes AND kill any family that hasn't left the house, and the insurance fraud profits of these homes are worth THE DIRT THEY'RE BUILT ON, and according to Cole, the actual worth of the houses is "Firewood. All of them.". The real money is in getting the whole set of lands, so that the SRF can build an entire freeway and commercial center and profit}}. Depending on your interpretation, while Kelso retalliates violently against the leaders of the SRF for killing families and recently retired war veterans, his silence of the evidence for the latter scheme implies that he supports the now-semi-purified growth of economic progress in L.A., even if it alienates any sense of friendship he had with Cole.
* ''[[Hatoful Boyfriend]]'' {{spoiler|1=The Hawk Party created the H5N1 flu and established St. PigeoNation's institute to do further research.}}
