One of the best operatives in Watch Dogs: Legion is the spy due to the skills and useful gadgets that come with them, these includes a P9 silenced pistol and a bulletproof car with concealed missiles. Spies are rare compared to the other operatives you can recruit throughout London. This how to get the Spy guide will tell you the best way to recruit a secret agent for your DedSec team if you are having difficulties finding one.
The spy with their sheer tenacity and resourcefulness is without doubt the one of the best characters you can recruit for your DedSec team. The easiest way to get a secret agent is to liberate the City of Westminster borough, once you have turned this area to 'Defiant' you will automatically unlock the spy.

Unlike liberating the City of Westminster borough which is a guaranteed way to get a spy the only other way in which you will be able to get a 007 style secret agent is heading over to the Lambeth borough and the MI5 building which is next to the River Thames. If you are familiar with James Bond movies you will instantly recognise this iconic building which serves as the headquarters of the United Kingdom's internal Security Service. All you need to do is scan everybody that is in near vincinity of the building until you find a spy. Then in order to add them to your DedSec team you will need tocomplete their loyalty mission. Remember that getting a spy this way relies heavily on luck.
The only other place where you may find a spy is at night near buildings such as Blume and SIRS where they will be relaxing next to their car. Listed below are the weapons and abilites that your DedSec team gains when you recruit a spy.
