If they want to nail you or just use you to make a very public example you will need to grab your ankles.

Affiliate programs are very dangerous because they can make a case that you are liable for everything in the chain.

I do not think it has been done criminally yet but it has been done with copyright liability.

The key thing to remember is they do not need to prevail in court, just arresting you followed by the press and ensuing legal bills will make you go bye bye.

This was a tactic used by the Regan administration to target porn in their time. Lots of local prosecutions most without merit wore down the industry financially.
