---- CJ - Only Javascript Links For Merchants After June 23

I guess the *geniuses* at CJ have forgotten all about the myriad of ways G now has to track the movements of people (toolbar, stats, etc.).

Hiding the links in JS is all fine and good assuming G can't read JS (which we know it can to at least a limited extent), but with all the tracking mechanisms G now has, it's still easy for them to see a person hitting a page then shortly after being routed through CJ (or any aff. program or network for that matter).

Who cares if they don't *see* the link, they will still see the movement of the person which is all they need to identify an "affiliate" site.

They'll have to come up with a better excuse than this.
