Possible detection of Sarin reported at Facebook facility in Menlo Park, 'no employees exposed,' may be false positive

I’m pretty sure that using high end chemical warfare detection capabilities is very niche(they certainly don’t use them at the entrances to military bases of my acquaintance, at least not routinely); but if someone was going to do it; a company with a variety of unsavory foreign policy entanglements and a business model that involves cultivating ‘engagement’ from a not always well-hinged userbase in most any flavor and at almost any cost seems like a plausible candidate.

That said, given how similar a lot of G-series are to common, legal, pesticides false positives would be quite trivial; by accident or for the lulz.
