If you’re actually interested in the Honey browser extension story we have two threads on it. One from last month & one going right now:

> [@Honey browser extension is a scam?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/honey-browser-extension-is-a-scam/1012015):
>
> [This YouTube video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vc4yL3YTwWk&ab_channel=MegaLag) says so, and brings the receipts. The video claims that Honey: claims to find consumers the best available discounts, but definitely doesn’t steals commissions from affiliate links allows advertisers to block consumers from finding & using discounts they may have found And this is only the “Part 1” video.

> [@Do you use the Honey browser extension?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/do-you-use-the-honey-browser-extension/1012506):
>
> I don’t know all of the technical details, but apparently they’ve been stealing from content creators for years. Honey was recently bought by Paypal, and now they’re being sued. [LegalEagle explains it all here.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4H4sScCB1cY)
