Side note: is there a policy (on Amazon's end) for editing affiliate links? Could pg theoretically swap the tag to ?ref=yc-20 if he wanted to?

- jedberg 14y agoAmazon has no such policy. I know this because we considered doing it at reddit (changing or adding our affiliate link to all Amazon links). We weren't sure how the community would react, so we we opted not to do it.
- dalore 14y agoMetafilter does it. But my love is for reddit.
- batiudrami 14y agoA site I go to (OzBargain.com.au) allows users to submit affiliate links, but automatically replaces them with it's own affiliate link for readers who aren't logged in, so I assume there's no policy. It seems like a reasonable compromise to me, but that's in the context of a website which is based on sharing discounted products.
