EDIT: In hindsight, I think I should've looked into posting this in a different community.. It's closer to a silly "innovation".. soo.. is this considered FUD? I also don't support smoking or vaping, especially among kids. Original title had "privacy-violating" before the "solution".

i dont see how this is a violation of anyones privacy and trying to get kids to not get addicted to drugs is a pretty fucking good cause.

Addicted to drugs!? We're talking about vaping here. Don't strain your hand clutching those pearls.

Nicotine is a drug.

Alcohol too, btw.

Power is the best drug.

Nicotine is no better of a drug than many others you probably wouldn't want kids taking. Just because it's a vape doesn't mean it's not incredibly addictive.

Doesn't make anyone sound like less of a square calling it a drug.

I'm not going to argue that nicotine is not technically a drug. But I still think you sound like a square in calling it one.

And? Why does that matter?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago

So, it is a drug, but it's not right to call it one?
