   Knowing the human race, there will be a rush to simply install one of   
   these babies and then start shooting up.  It's automatic, sweet, no need   
   to worry about dosage anymore.   
      
   How about a device that detects a certain dosage on multiple occasions   
   and then uses cloud-based SAAS/machine learning to go through your   
   address book and calendar and geolocation data, figure out who your   
   dealer is, and then automatically put a bullet in his head?   
      
   The only worse than the suffering of addicts is knowing that there are   
   folks making a tidy profit off their habit...
