Yes... 

We were in Norway for a land based break a few days before our most recent cruise, and though we did not experience this ourselves, we became aware of an anti-cruising campaign there.  They had signs up in some cities, shaming cruisers and saying they should book a "proper vacation".  There's even news about it.

 

I would imagine that, for many reasons, having hundreds of people hitting your town for a few hours every day could get old, increased cash flow notwithstanding.

This is something they need to take up with their government.  But I would be willing to bet if they did take it up with their government, it will tell them to go pound sand.  Were anyone in a place I visited to say something disparaging to me, I'd tell them they need to dismantle their port.
