PSA about those share buttons at the bottom of articles

I noticed this week that a bunch of sites are hiding affiliate links inside their social share buttons, so when you click to post something, it adds a tracking code you didn't agree to. I caught it on three separate recipe blogs in one night while trying to send my mom a pie recipe. Has anyone else seen this sneaky trick happening on their regular sites?

Were those recipe blogs from the same parent company or random ones?

Close, they were all separate blogs with different owners actually.
