Following our publication on censorship of Facebook facing the demand for advertising by the American documentary " A billion Lives We were far from thinking of a quick ending. And yet… It only took 3 days for the social network to reverse its so-called “final” decision and accept that the documentary could advertise. If it's a victory for the "free vape", it remains above all a beautiful example of solidarity that the vapoteurs showed by reacting very quickly through articles, petitions and comments!
VAPOTEURS LAUNCH A PETITION, FACEBOOK FINISHED BY CEDER!
Following the announcement of the censorship of the documentary " A Billion Lives "To Aaron Biebert, many vapers have decided to step up to denounce an illogical and counterproductive choice. In France, some blogs that we have decided to put this information forward and disseminate a maximum. More important again, Read immediately reacted in throwing a petition which we were talking about yesterday and who received more than 5000 signatories in 3 days. Obviously in the United States, the reaction was not long in coming and in the end Facebook preferred to give in. We would like to thank all the people who got involved in this affair, if some still had doubts, you now have the very expression of the defense of "the free vape". Obviously we can not forget to thank the social network " Facebook Which reacted very quickly and was able to take the initiative to reverse a decision that was initially considered to be "final".
THE OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE OF "A BILLION LIVES"
“As damaging bans and restrictions on safer smoking alternatives become law all over the planet, a billion people proceed to die from smoking. It's a very emotional time.
I look into the eyes of my new friends around the world and I see sadness.
I see frustration.
I see fear.
I see anger.
I also see hope.
This week, you did not give up. You fought back. You told us you were not going to stand for a movie.
- CASAA shared the story
- A petition was started
- Articles were written
- You changed your pictures & names
- You shared the story 1000's of times
- 100,000 people woke up
I'm proud to announce that Facebook has reversed their position. Our ads are no longer censored.
You did it.
That's not all we're going to do. This is just the beginning.
It was inspiring to see all the support we've received, but now it's time for me to get back to the editing room and finish the movie. It's getting close.
Then, we're going to drop this bomb, end this war, and save millions of lives. Together.
Thank you for caring,
- Aaron Biebert & the team »
