He uses the "Cloaking AFFILIATE links" functionality to hide the real nature of his links.

"If you’re hiding the true nature of your links so you can send bots to one destination and human users to another, Google considers you cloaking for a malicious reason and will penalize you for doing so. This is also a bad technique, and while it’s harder to catch, it’s still obvious to some bots and will hurt you in the long run.

And as Gary Illyes from Google says: "Then Gary said he will say one thing, that the sites impacted by this update should have been because what they are doing are specifically against Google's webmaster guidelines. " (https://www.seroundtable.com/google-...ate-23603.html)
