If you own a program and you generate a code through your affiliate program as what is typically refered to as an "inhouse code" to track certain campaigns then that code actually belongs to an 'affiliate'. So if you own the company and are committing infringement and try and hide behind the "it was an affiliate" argument, you are allowed to get spanked. That is what we were really refering to.

Companies who spammed tried to play that "it was an affiliate" game with the FTC. We were covering our bases.

This is an issue between a group of people and companies and us. Not the real affiliate community.
I think you should vigorously persue anyone stealing your content.
Good luck
