    This is news to me don’t know if you guys have seen it in adwords?

    My first thought is, it will be in the end for affiliates in adwords,
    Using Click Bank CJ Trade Doubler , Unless you buy a domain name and forward you affiliate link on to it,

    Any thoughts?

    Important Change to URL Policy Enforcement
    Starting in April, display URLs for new ads will be required to match their Destination / landing page URLs, without exception. Please adjust your URLs accordingly when creating new ads.

    This new policy applies to the landing page URL (where the user ends up) and not the "destination URL" that you specify in your AdWords campaign. The display URL needs to match the end landing page, and you don't need to own the domain that you direct the ads to. So, you can use the actual end landing page as the display URL, no problem. This should not be a problem if you are running AdWords through an affiliate link, and eventually ending up at the end site specified in your display URL.
