A: The kind where our specially trained microbial agents infiltrate and steal the world's most valuable resources: artisanal cheese, craft beer, and artisanal coffee.
Q: And what about the safety of the general public?
A: Don't worry, our microbes are highly trained and have undergone rigorous agent training protocols to minimize collateral damage.
Q: But what about the ethics of microbial espionage?
A: Let's just say we're working within the gray areas of the Microbial Espionage Act.
