Why do all external links have to go through an advertiser?

It seems that every external link placed within a post on the forum is converted to redirect via http://apicdn.viglink.com/

I often browse on my work laptop when travelling, and this domain is blocked as being untrusted and unsecure.

Every other forum I visit treats links as normal. Is this some way that PPRUNE has found to make money off of people? It's a real pain in the a**e.
