A little-known Russian spy agency left feces in the suitcases of diplomats as its calling card, report says

The Russian spy agency is believed to be behind the arrest of journalist Evan Gershkovich, according to the Wall Street Journal.

That’s stupidly childish. But I guess horse heads don’t fit inside suitcases and they had to improvise to the best of their abilities.
- Especially stupid considering that would give rivals DNA samples of the spies.
  
  Didn’t even think of that. Assuming the feces came from the spies themselves, what else can one get from that steaming pile of data? Like, can you retrace restaurants/visited countries/etc using undigested food, microbiome and other stuff? It feels like there might be a lot of leaked info.
