Why haven't they stopped producing cigarettes if they are SO against them!

You're kidding, right?
So long as they are guarateed a fixed profit, including the cost of playing tax collector, why should they care how high the price goes?

No.  This is about PM not sending anymore shipments to online vendors.  Sucking up to the AG's and all that.

Also, it's about PM putting their gagging TV ads on for people to stop smoking.

And yet.............they continue to manufacture and sell cigarettes.  Talk about hypocrisy!
