- InclinedPlane 16y agoIt's not necessarily trivial to monetize lots of traffic (see 4chan, for example).
- michaelbuckbee 16y agoThis is an excellent point and SO has previously stated (Pre VC) that they've had issues with doing so in part because of the community. I can specifically recall them describing how their attempts to do Amazon Affiliate sales of books on the site were being undermined by people removing the affiliate codes from the links.
- glenjamin 16y agoUnless the links are being provided by a source that the user dislikes, why would anyone choose to strip out the affiliate part of the URL? It doesn't increase the cost of the item (afaik), and provides the source with some revenue.
