I'd like to think of it as 'big tobacco' - but most of them own vape brands, so would have thought they'd be most happy to carry on selling nicotine products, without being beaten up with them killing people.
Now - I don't think big tobacco is 'clean' here. EU's "Tobacco Products Directive" was pretty much written to hand the market to large suppliers selling small refills.
My guess is that it's just the latest 'think of the children' scare. Juul and teenagers seem to be the main cause/victim here. Seems to gloss over the 'fewer teens are smoking' benefit here.
We had novels, rock music, gansta rap, video-nasties, murder-simulator games... and now we have vaping. Eventually we'll get over it.
