YouTuber Legal Eagle is suing over PayPal's Honey extension
Briefly

Devin Stone's lawsuit against PayPal alleges that the Honey extension unlawfully replaces creators' affiliate links, depriving them of income and violating California's Unfair Competition Law.
The complaint describes how Honey's browser extension gets credit for sales whether or not it finds coupons, essentially redirecting previously established affiliate relationships without benefit to creators.
By offering rewards through its Honey Gold Program and prompting users to checkout with PayPal, the lawsuit claims Honey is manipulating affiliate commissions in a deceitful manner.
PayPal's VP stated they adhere to 'industry rules and practices,' but the plaintiffs argue Honey's approach is not only standard but also misleading to users.
