The danger of posting affiliate links on your blog!

Read this news story with a pinch of salt please. I only present a picture before you based on FTC rules.

I read in a blog to which I have subscribed that bloggers who are into affiliate marketing are facing the danger of inviting the FTC officials. It seems bloggers without the stipulated disclosures on the blogs are the target of the FTC.

But if you are not earning through affiliate marketing but only trying to? There are no answers for that. What does this imply? Does it mean that all the major affiliate network like Clickbank and CJ will be affected?

Who is going to take up this issue? What about bloggers' rights? I am looking for more light on this sensitive issue.Any assistance?

I wonder what is John Chow's stand on this matter!
