there's a way to stop them but nobody really wants to.

I've been pointing the finger at AFF/Cams as the cause for over a year now, they were the first and main sponsor on all of the top illegal tube sites.
Some people pull links, but if everyone would then most of these companies would have to change their ways. Not all of them get their traffic from in house. The majority of them rely on affiliates, without affiliates many of these sites would have to scale back big time to stay a float if they stayed in business at all. Thats why I say it is our fault. Affiliates don't realize the power they have collectively but individually 99% of them don't matter.
And people make it sound like if they switch to another sponsor they will lose 50% of their sales etc.. maybe you will lose a little, or maybe not. Talk to the person you want to switch to that is doing the right thing and work out a deal and see if they can pay you more.
In the future I am only going to work with sites that don't do business with theives. If you want to use spyware, profit from illegal content, fine, I will choose someone who doesn't to send my traffic to.
