You should. The rule of thumb here is that if you have to go
through an affiliate there is a 100% chance you didn't want that
item or information anyway.

How do you actually block a site? You can;'t tell google not to look
there, after all.

You can exclude them from showing up on your Google search results by
filtering their domain (-ebay or -amazon) for the more popular ones.
Realistically, one should be excluding eBay and Amazon from their Google
results anyway. Pretty much everything else, I block their domain on my
end. So, if I inadvertently or by trickery click on an affiliate I
simply
hit a dead end. Under extremely rare cases when one does sneak by they
get
blocked and it's no longer an issue.

So, if, say, I search for

foobar -ebay

on google, that means that I would exclude ebay.com from results? Is
that right?

That's right; that's what I always do.
