TLDW: MegaLag found code and rules in the Honey extension that modifies behaviour specifically to make discovery of non-compliance with affiliate programs and affiliate poaching harder for testers. This behaviour has been in place since 2017 at least.
I appreciate the TLDW because the thumbnail made me think this was about bee vomit, not a scammy browser plugin
Glad it helped. I thought this would need some explaining why I posted it in this community.
