Good of you to come out and apologise for it (and remove the hidden feature), but this kind of fails the plausible deniability test... "I mistakenly added a feature that would show our referral links to half a million users in their search results" isn't really believable.

The intension is to make a small mount of money from the referral links while it still helps some users. However, I did it in a wrong way. Maybe we should did it like this: 1) Disable it by default. 2) Ask user's permission to enable it 3) Tell users why we add it.
