There is not a single large web platform that does not use complex tracking and targeting mechanisms. Affiliate Marketing is nothing compared to that.

- adrianN 7y agoBetter not work for large web platforms then.
- joaodlf 7y agoBetter not work for the web at all, if that's what worries HN users.
- Nextgrid 7y agoI don’t and still manage to earn good money contracting for honest businesses (that have a real product/service that people pay for instead of relying on stalking to make money). There’s plenty of stuff out there beyond FAANG.

- Nextgrid 7y agoMy point was less to show their lack of ethics and more that there’s more than enough money to be made in small (but profitable) businesses. Amazon is involved in advertising though so it’s just a matter of time before that cancer consumes the entire company (in addition to being unethical overall like closing their eyes on the counterfeit problem).
