Sony VTC6 batteries banned for vaping?

Shopping on Illum and saw this:

PRODUCT DETAILS

NOTE* THE NEWEST VTC6 BATCH CONTAINS MURATA BRANDING SINCE SONY SOLD THEIR ENERGY DIVISION TO MURATA. LOT CODES ARE ALSO REMOVED TO PREVENT SOURCE TRACKING DUE TO THE BAN OF VTC6 FOR VAPING USE. PLEASE NOTE REMOVAL OF LOT CODE IS NOT AN INDICATION OF NON-AUTHENTIC CELLS. WE STAND BEHIND OUR TESTING AND TRACK HISTORY OF SELLING AUTHENTIC BATTERIES *NOTE

Sony came out with the news that their batteries weren’t to be used in vaping devices because it was unsafe a while back already.
They are just joining the pack of wolfs out to get vaping abolished.

actually just protecting themselves so they can continue to sell em. It wouldnt surprise me if flavor companies dont have to state the same thing to stay in business

If that is their mindset then they’re shooting themselves in the foot!
