I often use the same legal mechanism to buy modafinil, and have reached out to my supplier about affiliating. They don't do it either. I have to wonder if there's some kind of risk or law working against them.

Isn't the sale and import of modafinil restricted? I would think that becoming an affiliate would introduce legal risk
It's legal for personal use. You can import prescription only medication from abroad, you just can't buy it domestically.
Modafinil is Schedule IV in the US. The law may or may not be enforced with respect with to Modafinil, but possessing that drug without a prescription is illegal.
The article was about someone from the UK, and I'm also from the UK. That's the circumstance I was speaking from.
