My objection is to the affiliate companies (Flex Offers, etc) themselves more than the blogs that use them. They discriminate against smaller blogs who could probably get a few customers a month using sidebar ads and not manufactured posts and still maintain the integrity of the blog. It's not like they have to hire staff to manually pay the commissions, it can all be done automatically with tracking. Big blog sells 100 credit cards, gets $10,000 commission. Little blog sells 3 credit cards, gets $300 commission, what's the big deal? Anyway, I will not be clicking any affiliate credit card links until Flex Offers or whatever stop discriminating against small blogs and give everyone equal chance.
