Sorry, but I don't see you ever accomplishing anything significant with your life if you think this way.
As for the legal responsibility, sure they're supposed to be giving you exactly what the business terms say they'll give you. However, to shave off some nickles and dimes here and there.... they can make small amounts from individuals that'll add up to large sums for them.
This means that unless all affiliates join together to file a lawsuit, it's just not worth it. For me to sue over a few hundred bucks is laughable.
Also, you'd have to prove without a shadow of a doubt that you have been stolen from. They just have to provide the shadow of doubt and they're free to go.

I agree with you 100% - so who do you attack first? The processor (cuz we know it's built in the system)? The 3rd party affiliate software that also has it built in the system? Or the sponsor? Also, wouldn't the lawyer be asking for all audited accounting books for all the years? They surely will have the accounting firms subpoenaed too, right? Anyhow......just some food for thought for the programs shaving and the ones aiding them - there will be a time when someone gets pissed off enough and gets a group of webmasters to go after you. Why not clean up your act before?
As for being ignored - don't feel bad, I'm usually the thread killer - I'm usually the one who has the last post :-))
