Deep dives
The Honey Controversy
A significant issue arises from the Honey browser extension, which is designed to help users find the lowest prices when they shop online. However, the controversy lies in how Honey impacts content creators who utilize affiliate links. When a user clicks an affiliate link from a creator but has Honey installed, it can redirect the credit for the sale from the creator to Honey, effectively depriving the creator of their rightful earnings. This situation has led to discussions within the creator community and even a class action lawsuit against Honey, highlighting growing concerns over affiliate marketing and content creators' rights.
