Do you remember liberally applying this to your baby brothers and sisters with this powder? Even to toddlers when they are sweating after playing right?!
Here is an article from CBS and NBC News ordering J&J to pay damages to the family of an ovarian cancer victim:

The victim was using "the iconic talcum powder as a bathroom staple for decades". The victim's son said that applying the baby powder "just became second nature, like brushing your teeth. It's a household name."
It was also said that "Johnson & Johnson 'knew as far back as the 1980s of the risk,' and yet resorted to 'lying to the public, lying to the regulatory agencies.' "
