Re: Discount Code Sites and Forced Clicks & IFRAMES
Networks are quiet imo because one won't take the lead in case the others don't follow. Why do the right thing if it means losing revenue to your competitors?
If Network 1 said 'forced clicks are not ok and we've given affiliates notice' then would others follow?
It's pleasing to see the iframe stuff sorted out (although it grates like hell that so many got away with it without nothing more than an "ohhh what's occurring")
But all networks will be silent on acting against forced clicks as none want to be isolated, especially as I don't believe some networks don't regard it as forced ('user knows they want to visit that site for a discount so fair dos' - yet as hpops says why can't the same be applied to everything else - e.g. user wants to see this product when they visit my price comparison page so lets pop up all merchants that have it).
