Sound like a stupid thing to do.
Why would a sponsor sell his affiliates list?
It is better for him that they will promote only him!

I would read the privacy statement within their TOS. Selling webmaster info is news to me.

It does happen, but most reputable affiliate programs wouldn't think about doing it. I'd guess anyone who gave their info to Like Whoa/all liquid can expect a lot of webmaster spam soon.
