Once, many moons ago, a group of devs at my old work got deny on internal zone-to-zone Firewall open request that they needed for integration between two internal systems, so they ended up making a script that e-mailed the info to a hotmail.com (SMTP was open) account and then wrote a script to login and screenscrape the mail info from hotmail back to the other server (https was open through surf proxy).

As someone in IT that is both wonderful and horrifying.
Never underestimate a pissed off dev.
This is spy movie level of fucked up. I love it! :,D
