Link Shield

Attention: In a near future, we will add a lot of tools for manage any link to anywhere on your website. Recently Spain passed a law that taxes any site that links to articles published by members of Spain's newspaper association with association with AEDE and CEDRO. The law has been nicknamed the "Google Tax" because it specifically targets Google News, as well as other news aggregation systems. If you have links to that newspapers, a user add a link on your comments, on your BuddyPress or bbPress, you are a candidate for having to pay the tax. If you have links to that website, and you are not paying that tax, you can be fined from 3,000€ to 30,000€ for every link found on your website. This plugin hide links from all your post, comments, BuddyPress activity and bbPress forum to CEDRO and AEDE members.
