ok, maybe I'm looking at this weird, but how is it any different than me placing a link to my friends site on one of my web sites? I'm no longer unbiased because he's my friend, right? But he's not paying me...
I'm all for regulations but when did we start treating people like idiots?
How about a little bit of personal responsibility -- like, if I buy a Camera simply because some wazzu on the street asked me to take a picture and I liked how it looked, well, that's my problem, isn't it?
