hijacking affiliate codes is unethical and should be stopped but don’t actually affect me in any way.

It does affect you because it would have meant that you couldn't claim cashback offers from sites like TopCashback and Rakuten, as the cashback site's affiliate code would have been replaced with Brave's.

I don't use sites like that 🤷‍♂️
