> people living in places where vaping is legal, are concerned that there might be a push towards prohibition Spreading false, misleading information doesn't help legitimize your cause. > the problem arises when the lack of conclusive evidence is used as an argument in favour of prohibition, that is what drives many vapers to respond I haven't see anyone here doing that, I certainly haven't. > In other words, if something is “possibly harmful but we’re not sure yet”, is that a sufficient reason for making it illegal? Most vapers think that the answer is no. I do not thing there is any doubt that vaping is harmful to some degree (that appears to be the scientific consensus). The unresolved questions are "how harmful?" and "is it a net negative for society?". However, even if the answers are "almost as harmful as cigarettes" and "yes, it increases public health risks overall despite reductions in smoking", I still would not support banning e-cigs (though I would support advertising restrictions).
