actually discussed here, but it didn't gain a lot of points, so not much visibility for such big news https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33967454 https://new

  Big news? It's certainly not a topic of active conversation in NZ. It was talked about for a day or two when it was announced a while back - I haven't seen a single news article about it recently, nor has anyone talked about it. The opposition political parties haven't made a big deal out of it either that I've noticed. I don't think anyone really cares. With vaping still being allowed - it's all a bit moot. Anyone born after 2008 is going to be buying a vape.

    I'm also from NZ. No one cares about this really. Smoking is already unpopular and people feel little sympathy for the plight of future smokers. We don't have the same culture of personal freedoms at any cost as many commenters here. It's gross so get rid of it.
