Yeah, people were confused by links like this one:

http://www.amazon.com/Dropping-Acid-Reflux-Diet-Cookbook/dp/...

Which has some traces of how you navigated through amazon to get to the page (the ref= and such). That's according to reddit anyway: https://www.reddit.com/r/amazon/comments/qim88/referral_code... . An associate referral would apparently be tag=.

I guess if you want to put the links back in, links like:

http://www.amazon.com/Dropping-Acid-Reflux-Diet-Cookbook/dp/...

will incite less whinging.
