It might be valuable information and it’s a good thing you care, but I think this is a case where the content is free because you are generating the profit. Not clicking links is definitely a big part of preventing them making money off you, but they might still collect data.

And you declare any site that has not yet discovered a better way than Amazon affiliate links to make money off-limits for you and suggest everyone else to do the same?
There are two problems I see in your approach:
You are not letting Productfrom and everyone else that a better way exists. In this case it could be setting up a similar program with someone better than Bezos or even turning everything into a crowdfunded operation.
You are cutting yourself off immense portions of the web for no good reason at all, since there are quite simple ways to prevent the harvesting of useful data from you.
If the site was a little better (a lot of products have the 5 years disclaimer on them) I would even voluntarily let them know more about me on their analytics, if they had one (they are on the old version of GA, which has sunset 2 years ago), since the idea is actually good.
I didn’t suggest anything and if you don’t mind a company earning money with your data I’m not gonna stop you.
There is a lot of people who don’t know that sites collect data even if you don’t click any links. I like it when people make a well-informed decision and didn’t know you were aware of that. You can overcome that by blocking trackers, hiding your IP and removing cookies after a visit. I’d much sooner getting tools to do that then declaring certain sites off-limits.
I didn’t even get to click on a product, just getting to know where stuff is made is inspiration enough for me.
