Listen "#594 - HSA Can Bust You for Vaping & Yet Another Case of Blackface"
Episode Synopsis
There’s no smoke without fire…or in this case, vapes? Apparently, plainclothes Health Sciences Authority (HSA) officers have the power to enter and search your house if they suspect you possess a vape, and they don’t need a warrant to do it. A recent incident involving TikToker Rapperboy has us asking, just how far does the long arm of the law reach? What are the safeguards against scammers taking advantage of this? Separately, yet another case of blackface has surfaced at a company dinner & dance. Seriously, Singapore.
