On one hand, add Tiffany to the list of China bootlickers. On the other hand, lifestyle brands like Tiffany have been sensitive to public backlash for a couple years now. Do a search for things like "removes ad amid backlash" or "ad controversy" and there are plenty of examples.


Kind of proves how ridiculous this regime is along with companies backing down over silly accusations.

As if being scared of Winnie the Pooh imagery isn't silly enough.
