As someone who likes their database tables correctly named, without duplication and containing all the data, I can understand the urge to deploy this as a handsoap to all public restrooms with sinks that can collect water samples.

It's just too neat and clean of a trap to not use it.

Oh god... as soon as word gets out of this coming to reality there will be a surge of unwashed public restroom hands. Good god! It's bad enough most old guys don't wash their hands after touching their dicks and door handles, now we'll have poop hands everywhere.

Yeah, with their resources the CIA should really start thinking of CONSEQUENCES of their actions (e.g. this, Iran Contra support, and other shadiness).

That would mark the first time the broad public actually changes behaviour because of a perceived threat to their anonymity and data.

I'd be putting my money on the soap people if that were to play out.
