Strike 3 from #MegaLag on #CookieGate
And it is like sweet sweet #Honey 🐝

Efter ett år av tystnad har Megalag publicerat den andra delen i sin serie om Paypals hårt kritiserade Honey-webbläsartillägg. I den här delen berättar Megalag bland annat om hur webbläsartillägget har samlat in mer data än det har gett sken av. Han berättar också om mängden berörda webbplatser, vilket han har lyckats kartlägga tack vare en domänlista från webbläsartillägget.

Long awaited part two from MegaLag about the investigation into Honey
Part 2 of Megalag's Honey investigation, already previously taken down by Paypal lawyers. The craziness just gets worse and worse.

Gotta wonder how many people who installed the #honey coupon code extension realized that PayPal was tracking their activity across basically every site that you could buy things, subscriptions or services on. I'd be astonished if that didn't also include little things like people's porn browsing habits.
Holy shit. #MegaLag released his second video about #PayPal and #honey. Exactly one year after he released the first part.
Honey/PayPal already sent him a Cease&Desist letter. Hence he had to remove some parts from his video.
Oh, and he promised a 3rd part in a few days.

Honey trap(美人計)意旨利用有魅力的人獲取資訊。但近日,一個名為Honey的程式卻讓許多創作者跳出來表示——他們中了Honey設下的詐騙圈套。在網路上,有一款名叫Honey的免費瀏覽器擴充程式,它所提供的服務就和它的名字一樣,會幫用戶找到網路上最便宜、最甜的優惠碼,宛如消費者最貼心的好夥伴。用戶安裝程式後,只要在網路購物結帳前,點擊瀏覽器上Honey的按鈕,程式就會提供該商品可使用的優惠碼,重點是整個過程完全免費。但在去年底,紐西蘭YouTuber梅加洛(Megalag)上傳了一支影片,揭露了Honey與其母公司PayPal,使用「最後點擊歸因模型」(Last Click Attribution),聯手竊取了網路創作者原本應得的廣告佣金。梅加洛稱,「Honey無疑是本世紀最具侵略性且無恥的行銷騙局,它不只騙消費者的錢,也讓幫助宣傳的網紅從受害者變成共犯。
