Do you think/fear that they will bribed to suggest something shady just so they can collect on the affiliate link? I have been trusting them as a source for a couple of years now, and I believe that for (the majority of) us here in HN, the moment we see they start feeding us garbage, a) we will call them out in this forum, b) we will leave them so fast their heads will spin.
- shekhardesigner 7y agoI am rather thinking that, let us say "App XYZ" is super secure and PrivacyTools lists them without affiliation. Later after sometime if App XYZ offers affiliate, why would they pay PrivacyTools since the app is listed free anyway? If anything - PrivacyTools should expect donations, not affiliated or marketing revenue. And I honestly think - they can also go in the direction of having a minimal monthly subscription fee.
