Morgunblaðið, Iceland's oldest newspaper and most-visited website (now co-edited by the former prime minister and head of the central bank) has just announced an anti "deep linking" policy saying that Icelanders aren't allowed to link to individual pages on the site, only the front door.

Ah, there's the commitment to public service that makes journalism so critical to a free society! (Thanks, Halli!)
