I was reading through some of that and what a muddled mess it is. I assume their main target is people that are actually getting paid to write reviews or given free merchandise to review. But, it doesn't really look like affiliates are safe though. There is definitely a lot of vague wording, so I'm not sure what to make of it. I guess I'll start writing some disclaimers.
Edit: Oops. I didn't mean it to sound like I was calling your article a muddled mess. Hopefully, that wasn't how it read. I thought you had a nice overview. I was talking about the law being kind of ambiguous. They might as well have worded it, "You know it when you see it."
