PayPal Honey steals affiliate links and lies about finding the best coupons - Lemmy

🖕 Fuck PayPal

Ltt didn’t hide shit, they posted it on a public forum

If only they had some medium to post the information, perhaps a medium that that VAST MAJORITY of their viewers use.

“But the plans were on display…”

“On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.”

“That’s the display department.”

“With a flashlight.”

“Ah, well, the lights had probably gone.”

“So had the stairs.”

“But look, you found the notice, didn’t you?”

“Yes,” said Arthur, “yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.”

They’re complaint was that honey inserted their affiliate cookie even when they didn’t find a coupon code for you. I doubt they knew the full extent of the scam.

Plus, we don’t know what was in their contract with honey. They could still be subject to a non-disparagment clause.

GN doesn’t seem to have a problem holding their sponsors accountable, putting a story together, doing their due diligence, and then letting everybody know.
