Internal Philip Morris document (June 24, 1987) showing early conspiracy to
disrupt the expose of second hand tobacco smoke as a health hazard:

(via smokescreen.org)

A possible course of action listed in their 116-item brainstormed "ideas list"
reveal Philip Morris's tendency towards starkly controlling, threatening

Hmmm...like web sites ala "FORCES"?  Like paying smokers to post "smokers
rights" gibberish on the web?  Like the pro-smoking posters in alt.smokers?
