not if he is buying stolen traffic , its nothing different than if you went into a pawnshop and bought a bike that turned out to be stolen..
its still stolen regardless of if the pawnshop is popular or used for legit purposes. the bike is still stolen.. sure you wont be charged with stealing it.. but you could be charged with possesing it.

EDIT: your first post sounded like an accusation of affiliates whos aff. codes you posted, but you already corrected your statement

if it was misunderstood i clarified.. in the original post i said for sponsors not to go off half cocked and ban these people , just to make their affiliates aware they dont want spyware traffic , especially the purchase/manipulation of trademarked names
