		Using deep links, frames, and others' graphics on your site can make it appear more robust and provide a better user experience, but it may not please the affected website owners.
		Linking is so fundamental to the functioning of the World Wide Web that many users feel that any legal restriction on their use of links is a violation of the right to travel and speak freely in cyberspace.
		Deep linking allows visitors to bypass information and advertisements at the home page and go directly to an internal page.

	LLRX -- Thinking About Linking: Can Law Accommodate the Power of the Internet to
		Some commentators argue that limits on linking are equivalent to limits on thought and free expression, and this understanding, while not dispositive of the issue, will shape the success of the legal model for control of online copyright.
		For text links, you either need to clearly identify the site you are linking to or, then again, if you use the trademark name of the site you may have diluted the copyright so you are better off coming up with your own description of the site.
		Links to front pages are an absurd curbing of the power of the Internet to allow users to bring together relevant ideas and manipulate them creatively to add intellectual value.

	Is Deep Linking Legal?

	WORLDLawDirect - Deep linking -- Is it legal?
		Deep linking is when one site establishes a link to a page, other than the home page, of another site.

		The content may not be password protected, but if you were only able to find the URL of the page containing the valuable content by completing a registration process, don't deep link to that page thereby depriving the site owner of the chance to capture the details of who is accessing the material.
		It is not really fair to argue that you can deep link to a site on the basis that if the site owner had not intended this, s/he should have made use of technological measures to prevent this.

		In a few cases, deep links are counter-productive because certain pages cannot or should not be used before users have passed through higher-level pages.

		Deep linking refers to one website going directly (linking) to an internal page at another site rather than going to that site’s home page.
		Another example of deep linking occurs when a site has a search form for its users to fill out along with a corresponding search engine and associated database that the search form submits (links) to.
		A more sensible approach is to institute technical measures of preventing foreign sites from deep linking to pages that you don’t want them to link to.
