So my understanding is, he is annoyed that other website adds a query string such as "?ref=origin.com" to links pointing to authors website.
How does this benefit the other website? How does this hurt the authors website?
I am completely confused about the behavior of both side here.
I get that when I run an ad-campaing I want google to add a utm-query string, so I can track which campaign users arrived from - but then the origin and the destination are working together. Here the origin just adds stuff for no reason. Why?
