I'm guessing that there are a couple of ways to look at this semi-novel approach.
1. It is mildly amusing and conveys a message of disdain to the targeted authority figures.
2. It is a counter productive, borderline passive-aggressive mild insult to a population that may not
endear you to them, in any future dealings.
How ingenious is it to sit and fold hundreds of simple pigs, waste your own time, when you could be
doing something more enjoyable or worthwhile ?
The individual who most probably will end up unfolding these models will be some poor clerk or
assistant.
Rather than utilize origami for punitive means, an alternative might be to reward good service from folks, with a nicely done origami model .

May I wish success to all who cope with the mountains & valleys of Life,
with all its peaks & depths, as well as Origami .
