When you click on links to various merchants on this site and make a purchase, this can result in this site earning a commission. Affiliate programs and affiliations include, but are not limited to, the eBay Partner Network.
I understand IB has focused heavily on the cyber security aspects of the forums- but links are another story. There have been times that I'd guess they've had to contend with Denial of Service attacks when we've had difficulty accessing the forums.
There are people who write a headline about an event, but only paste the link rather than the full story--those are the thinks IMO to be concerned about.
