A larger point your post made me realize is that this is a problem for the web dev community as a whole. Chris, the key is that you were capable of doing this for yourself rather than asking linkers to do it for you. This shows that web architecture is working just like it's supposed to.

Somebody wrote a story on the 2004 US presidential prediction markets somewhere on the Web. He/she hotlinked a graph that I was webhosting. I won't pay for somebody else's use of *my* resources. I went to my server, in the "hot link protection" area, and enabled the hot link protection service. So their readers don't see the stolen graph anymore. DON'T MESS WITH FRANCE!!!!! Best regards, Your Royal Highness, Chris. F. Masse Hi Mike L.,

My experience.

Somebody wrote a story on the 2004 US presidential prediction markets somewhere on the Web. He/she hotlinked a graph that I was webhosting.

I won’t pay for somebody else’s use of *my* resources.

I went to my server, in the “hot link protection” area, and enabled the hot link protection service.

So their readers don’t see the stolen graph anymore.

DON’T MESS WITH FRANCE!!!!!

Best regards, Your Royal Highness,

Chris. F. Masse
