Do you think if free uncensored porn was banned, they'd still accept that traffic? There's no fucking way.

I don't know if you were around when free porn became illegal in the US. It wasn't actually that free porn was illegal, but all porn sites had to have a age verification system to keep minors out. The AVS companies were getting a ton of new webmasters back then. There were still free sites from Canada and Europe and else where.
I don't remember if The Hun went to AVS back then (since he's from The Netherlands). But if it's not illegal in Canada to have free porn sites, why would paysites stop getting traffic from them. They aren't breaking any laws. Also, what's to stop you or any other person with free sites to setup a company in another country where it's legal and send traffic from free sites. Just because it illegal in the US, doesn't mean paysites can't accept sites from other countries where it is legal.
The big programs already accept sites that are considered illegal in the US based on the US obsenity laws. They'll still take free sites if free sites became illegal, until someone sayed something to them about a certain free site. Paysites don't go around to all the affiilate sites to make sure they are legal. They usually only check them when they have to.
