This sounds evil...

  I'd love to know why you think this way.

  You obviously couldn't bother to read three paragraphs in to see clearly how this is not.

    Yes, it is shooting you with a tiny bullet and sucking up the blood splash that results. The patent calls it a "micro-particle", 10µm to 250µm caliber. It can be "dart-shaped" or spherical. Muzzle velocity may be supersonic. The suggested material is gold particles held together with biodegradable glue, which is a neutral material for humans. Or maybe just a water droplet. It seems they've tested this thing. On Google employees?

      This is basically the same way you can get DNA into cells for gene transformation. These “bullets” better not have any DNA on them.
