  1. School districts sue Juul [Click] One item in the story puzzled me:

    “Faculty have had to take extreme measures including removing bathroom doors, installing vape sensors in bathrooms, banning USB flash drives, and hiring additional staff to combat vaping.”

    Why ban flash drives, I wondered. So I googled it, and quickly found

The article has considerably more information on disguised vaping devices. Also on the insanely variable regulations at the federal level. Oh, and Juul predicts more than three billion dollars in sales this year; that should hire quite a legal team.
