What do you guys think about the issue of a merchant or advertiser being able to control this? If a company has 3,000 affiliates and they expressly forbid spamming in their affiate agreement - but affiliates still SPAM, should the merchant be held liable? I don't think that's fair. Yet on the other hand when people sue, they want to sue someone who has money so may go after the merchant instead of a small individual affiliate, unless this is clearly spelled out.
