As an ex-employee, the overriding affiliate links and setting fix discount rates with merchants is sad to see. The original mission was always to help customers make more informed purchases and save money. Seems like a lot of that was lost post-acquisition, and instead of innovating on the core mission of saving money, they just doubled down on exploiting first click affiliate monetization. They should only make money if customers save money and partner with affiliates but instead they hopped on the gravy train.
