Life in a Northern Virginia suburb of Washington, D.C. B.M.A.T.C., and Etruscan typewriter erasers. Blogged by David Gorsline.
Citing security concerns, the webmasters of the new online service that
provides your annual free credit report (available in the west as of
December 1, coming soon elsewhere) are blocking external links
(presumably by inspecting the HTTP Referer: header). I can't imagine what
they were thinking; it's easy to draw the conclusion that the credit
agencies are deliberately making it difficult to find and use the service.
The Electronic Privacy Information Center has the story and a workaround
page.
