- kizunajp 4y agoYou are right. My apologies, @flir. It looks like Ghost adds the referrer information despite me trying to strip off as much as I could from the URL. I have removed the links altogether from the post. Thank you for pointing this out.
- flir 4y agoI also apologise, my tone was completely wrong. If you're genuinely just writing about cool stuff you've found, I can't see the problem with an Amazon referral link (it's way less offensive that youtube monetization). I was just surprised to see it on HN.
