7. In a recent set of two articles on treatment for smoking cessation published in the Annals of Behavioral Medicine in April 2011 (; ), the conflict of interest statement regarding Dr. Fiore acknowledges that: "Over the last 3 years, Michael C. Fiore served as an investigator on research studies at the University of Wisconsin that were funded by Nabi Biopharmaceuticals."

Earlier this week, I that the 2014 Surgeon General's fails to disclose the conflicts of interest of its authors, many of whom have received money from pharmaceutical companies which manufacture the very products about which the report opines. I also how this is particularly problematic, since the report itself complains about how historically, tobacco-funded scientists failed to disclose their conflicts of interest. I concluded that the 2014 Surgeon General's report is violating the very ethical principles that it attacks the tobacco company for violating in the past, and I note that while there has been substantial progress in the past 50 years in the area of disclosure of conflicts of interest, somehow that progress has evaded the producers of the Surgeon General's report itself.

If it were a public health policy based on some sort of health principles, then it certainly would not penalize ex-smokers who quit using electronic cigarettes. In contrast, it would actually reward these individuals for having quit smoking and perhaps saved their lives.

But wait, on eBay all types of E-Cig and vaping hardware and accessories are sold all the time. In fact, there are dozens of listings every hour. Although technically they are violating the rules, sellers are extremely careful not to list it as a tobacco or an E-Cig product. They list the name and the description but never mention that it is used for vaping or E-Cig purposes at all. Some sellers even go as far as to neither state on their description that what they are selling isn’t tobacco related nor do they contain nicotine. eBay however doesn’t have as much scrutiny as PayPal does if you sell/buy directly from the person. Before money is transferred there is a box to describe the transaction with what is being bought or sold. If vaping or E-Cig is mentioned at all, both the buyer and seller’s account will be locked. Now this may not be a big deal for some people but some folks (like myself) leave money in their PayPal accounts especially if they use eBay often or do trades on a weekly basis. Some people have hundreds if not thousands of dollars in their PayPal accounts. When an account is frozen, your money is gone and not recoverable. You could try to contact PayPal’s customer service and argue that you weren’t doing anything against their terms and regulations, however among the people I’ve known to get their account frozen, not many were able to argue their way out of it. Their money was as good as gone!
