I found two sites that counteract each other in different ways, one mainly tempts smoking and supports smokers through buying smoking accessories and another that promotes quitting by suggesting another alternative that acts similar to smoking however is much safer.
Encouraging smokers to continue <- this site displays smoking accessories that encourages smoking
promotes quitting <- the site displays other similar alternatives to smoking such as electronic cigarettes to encourage smokers to quit
I noticed that a majority of smokers disregard information that is given in plain text although a lot of money is spent under campaigns that encourage people to stop smoking.
I believe that smokers are aware of the dangers of smoking however the adverts are not really personal enough to allow some people to see any personal link, with the device i am hoping to make, will allow the personal user to see their personal intake and the harm it is causing by smoking, it may help people to consider making a small change, either by quitting or adjusting the way they smoke. even if this much is not successful in certain smokers, the device simply allows the smoker to be alerted of the damage it is causing to their own health.
