Deep linking to Telegraph.co.uk
Their T&Cs say you can’t do it.
Oops.
Wonder if they’ll sue me? Come and have a go if you think you’re hard enough, Telegraph lawyers!*
Apparently you’re not allowed to ” modify or attempt to modify all or any part of the Content or the Site” either. I guess they’re going to be taking legal action against people who comment on their stories too?
Just when it was beginning to seem like newspapers are getting a handle on new media…tsk.

http://www.justguido.comI just don’t understand why anyone would not want you to deeplink.
Some advertisers in affiliate networks do it as well. Is there a specific reason?
Or is it just them thinking that their homepage is the bomb diggity?
