heh i would buy it, if simply to stop people taking some of my drink.
i am not sure if people would buy this out of paranoia though... it is a safetly device so it can be used to protect against drink spiking so nothing wrong there.. i think its a reflection on society if people have to use these things to protect themselves, i personally wouldnt use it has protection, if i did have one it would be to stop my brother nicking off with my drink al lthe time, if he cant get into it, no reason to take it. its kind of catering to a niche market though. i cant imagine many people scared enough of drink spiking to use one of those... a few simple precautions such as keeping an eye on your drink to avoid such things
btw this article is missinformed, there is currently [ as far as i know] no drug that is clear, odourless and tasteless that can be used to spike your drink that a civilian could obtain, the formula for Rohypnol has been changed now so it is pink? colour? anwyays it was changed because it was used for state rape so it no longeris indetectable
if people feel these devices are necessary then maybe they should be used. Despite the whole media thing though there isnt exactly an epedemic of drink spiking, it is a crime and it occurs as often as one would expect a crime to occur i.e how many people carry those alarm things that attach to a handbag as personal protection from potential snatch and grabbers? anyeone? i expect about the same amount of people to buy these things for the use of protection against drink spiking
