For me, this is FTC's evil plan to end and destroy the career of affiliate marketing and bloggers. How unfair! Go to hell FTC! I will blame FTC and I will never forgive them, if they don't make my dream business to come true on affiliate marketing!

This is what Satan sent to FTC to make their mind evil! Your decision is not God-given, and you're destroying everyone's lives here. If FTC is reading about this, you should come face-to-face with me and duel in a "Steel Cage" match which means if I win, they have to reset their rules again to the old one.

Before you implement that rules FTC, you have to go through me!

I look at this as a total positive, it's simply another step forward to clean up the internet. We can't knock them, going back few years there were way more rip off sites and con sites then what there is today. The internet will draw a lot more sustainable users with honest and trustworthy bloggers and affiliate marketers!

I personally don't like it when the feds step in and start regulating industries, businesses, people's entrepreneurial drives. I don't like it because to some extent it seems to me like there won't be no stopping to regulation. Today the regulate this, what will tomorrow bring?

On the other hand, I understand the feds need for regulation. Of course they only want to protect the consumer from fake advertising and similar stuff. So rules are welcome in that sense. if only they didn't start multiplying them and changing the game every time they do, then all would be just fine.

All in all, I believe these new guidelines are not as troublesome as most people think. So I'll come out in the open and tell my visitor's that I'll get paid when they buy using my links. no big deal. It's not like i was stealing from them. Just making a living.
