Never installed honey because I knew it was too good to be true somehow.
There’s no way you make that much money to pay all these influencers on a fucking free addon without a catch
I just always assumed they made it back by stealing the absolute shit out of your data (which to be fair, they almost assuredly do).
I feel bad for the content creators, even if it’s kind of funny to see LTT’s sponsor scam them instead of their audience for once
That wasn’t at all what I was expecting. I always figured that Honey had to be somehow skimming a bit off the top with their coupon codes, but I had no idea they were straight-up overwriting affiliate cookies. This feels illegal, or at the very least it should be illegal.
And this is why we don’t install proprietary software
Anyone care to do a tl;dw? Thanks
Honey bad. Converts affiliate links to Honey commission, even if no coupons found. Oh, and it doesn’t actually look for all coupons and will limit what is shown on partner sites. Video was a good watch.
That was interesting watch. I’m familiar with the plugin though never installed it and glad for it now. Very scummy behaviour, but that’s to be expected from PayPal
Oh the browser addon. Goshdarnit. (watching now)
Hopefully my edit helps.
lol yeah, don’t worry, bit of confusion helps keep the brain agile. Very interesting video, thanks for sharing!
