It's interesting (but perhaps predictable) that Google are still allowing existing affiliate tracking data to be overridden by extensions like Honey, just for applying a slight discount.

With the conversion rate already so high at the checkout screen where coupons are applied, it seems hard to make the case that snagging the referral from the original referring party is fair.

As someone who has used Honey in the past, while I knew it was taking affiliate commissions in some form or another I had no idea just how insanely deceptive it was.

I was completely unaware that it sneakily overrides any existing affiliate codes, AND does this even if it hasn't found any discount whatsoever.

It's hard to see this as anything other than fraudulent.
