If you'd rather read through every other option being explored one by one by one then we have very different tastes in comics. Apart from that brief period she was working for the Initiative Buffy and Co have always operated outside the law. I'm quoting myself but hell:

Despite her refusal to take money from individuals, Buffy has always been a little cavalier about her treatment of corporate property when for Slaying purposes. She stole a rocket launcher, she blew up a school and then a whole town, she broke into restricted government institutions and had Willow hack into their mainframes. (She was, as Voll said from the beginning, a terrorist). Moreover, since the fall of Sunnydale it seems she’s become aware of W&H, which is unlikely to have changed her opinion of corporations in any positive direction.

The full details of why they did it is what makes me eager to read more but the reveal that she did it at all is emotionally satisfying because of the way it accounts for the schizo reactions she had to Faith and Giles and brings new depth to all her previous statements from "The thing about changing the world" onwards.
