Those are the companies you work with. You don't choose a place to send traffic to based on a page which a 16 yr old Indian designer stole from another program and where the idiotic program owners likely only did a search and replace for names. You work with serious, established people that you can trust with your traffic and trust to pay you. That means they have to have a track record of doing the right thing. All business' are the same. Good sense is good sense. Managing risk well is managing risk well.
If an adult program has a 16 year old Indian designer spin their legal docs, that doesn't seem very serious and longevity-oriented.

I'm sure you are right that some programs do this and have never even read their own TOS. Maybe some of those will read this thread and realize how that looks to many webmasters.

Someone who is mean to the waiter, but nice to you, is not a nice person.

A program which rips off someone smaller, but is nice to you, is not to be trusted.
