I agree, But advertising agencies which offer advertisements without tracking are negligible because their competition produces more conversion so obviously advertisers flock to them. Services like ethical ads are available only to select large open-source projects as the advertisers target niche audience.
Affiliate links when the content isn't exactly a review of the said product/book (to avoid conflict of interest) do work in this context to some extent. But the current referral system is a mess with each product/service tying up with different middlemen or having their own system, arbitrary approval, payment issues, publishers gaming the system etc.
I have started to track the need-gap for 'Single referral system for all services' on my problem validation platform[1].
