It seems to happen when some names a product.

Just happened to me with a post I made. I mentioned "red flash light" and it made a link to a red colored flash light on amaz on. Could be an OK thing I guess, but like most things on the internet it some how feels invasive.

By the way, after doing a google search I found this to be the description of vig link: "Your links can be doing more. Unlock the power of your site's links and earn extra money from your site automatically, transparently and honestly."

yes it could be a good thing but also a very bad thing also. what if it sends you to a phishing website and you put your info into it and you can loose all your money and info like that.

you never no these days people are not that smart and wont look it up cause they think its the correct site to do it at just cause they got sent there.

if i were the staff member i would come out and let people no its ether safe to do that or not, and just remove it.
