I, as the user, decide what affiliate link I want to use, not my browser!

Sure but that sounds like liberty and autonomy, not privacy.

I asked specifically how it infringes on privacy. Seems like the wrong word to use.

You really think they don't track you?

Yeah, who do you think would track you? The ones controlling the reflinks maybe? Dude, really? C'mon, you're smarter than that.

Track what, and how?

What specifically are you accusing them of? Uploading your browser history to the cloud? What does that have to do with referral links?

You’re just making shit up.

Woah, dude, why are you so friggin’ annoying and exhausting? Don’t act like an idiot, it makes me sick. Welcome to my block list.
