Comment on LegalEagle Suing PayPal's Honey

  They stole referrals. I’ll explain like you’re 10, it’s a bit much for a 5 year old.

  Let’s say you watch a video with a link to a product in the description. Normally, when you click that link, a referral code is embedded so the person who made the video gets a referral fee when you make a purchase.

  Honey would remove those referral codes and replace it with their own.

    like you’re 10

    Then uses embedded and referral. Not sure I know many ten year olds that would get those meanings. 😊

      I’m sorry that you have so little faith in the 10 year olds you know.

      Does your comment have a constructive point or are you simply the sort that looks for technicalities to correct so they might feel smugly satisfied about themselves?

      Eh, my 10yo would probably get it, but I’d need to define those terms. My younger kid probably wouldn’t.
