There's little to no shock value. We know smoking is bad for us. However, it's still an addictive substance and habit, and no advertisement is going to make that stop.

I always wondered how everyone else reacted to those ads... Personally, the 'truth' ones were ok at first but the crap they've got now is just obnoxious. I feel like they are scraping the bottom of the 'statistics barrel' for info to use in their ads. I DESPISE the 'It must have been a typo' ad with the dancing typwriters and unicorns and crap. Blech. I'm a social smoker (like when drinking) and given the chance, I would probably enjoy having a cigarette in front of the Truth people. You so nailed it by saying that these ads only stir up our innate desire to rebel. Hahah this is great!
