 In performance art, such as DECONference (Decontamination Conference), the confederates were called "deconfederates".When a large group of DECONference attendees were asked to remove all clothing prior to entry to the event, the deconfederates, planted among the attendees, would comply immediately with the request, causing all of the others to follow the orders and disrobe as well.Police or military interrogators sometimes use undercover agents (called "plants") to assist with the interrogation of an individual or suspect.
