   I cancelled my account because of this. I suggest everyone else do the same.   
   Maybe they'll get the message.   
      
      
      
   Hello,   
      
   Unfortunately, Governor Brown has signed into law the bill that we emailed   
   you about earlier today. As a result of this, contracts with all California   
   residents participating in the Amazon Associates Program are terminated   
   effective today, June 29, 2011. Those California residents will no longer   
   receive advertising fees for sales referred to Amazon.com , Endless.com ,   
   MYHABIT.COM or SmallParts.com . Please be assured that all qualifying   
   advertising fees earned before today will be processed and paid in full in   
   accordance with the regular payment schedule.   
      
   You are receiving this email because our records indicate that you are a   
   resident of California. If you are not currently a resident of California,   
   or if you are relocating to another state in the near future, you can manage   
   the details of your Associates account here . And if you relocate to another   
   state in the near future please contact us for reinstatement into the Amazon   
   Associates Program.   
      
   To avoid confusion, we would like to clarify that this development will only   
   impact our ability to offer the Associates Program to California residents   
   and will not affect your ability to purchase from Amazon.com , Endless.com ,   
   MYHABIT.COM or SmallParts.com .   
      
   We have enjoyed working with you and other California-based participants in   
   the Amazon Associates Program and, if this situation is rectified, would   
   very much welcome the opportunity to re-open our Associates Program to   
   California residents. As mentioned before, we are continuing to work on   
   alternative ways to help California residents monetize their websites and we   
   will be sure to contact you when these become available.   
      
   Regards,   
      
   The Amazon Associates Team
