How do you know it not just people who assume smoking only applies to tobacco and insist they never have, but instead smoke tons or weed? Or exclusively vape?

Of course not, why would I click a link to a page that’s probably filled with ads, a cookie popup, and an email popup when I have other users to read it for me?

Dang, I should have applied Cummingham's law and asserted the cancer increase was due to weed smokers and vapers. But yes it's easier to type a comment and get juicy engagement on an ad-free site than it is to dive into some random laggy (on my phone) ad-ridden news site that may or may not have a paywall.
