Re: website links / website linking
Unless the site expressly prohibits this on their website, you may link. If it is not written out on their site, the only way you would be civilly liable (not illegal as in a criminal case!) would be where the site is a business site or an ISP and they have some agreement with you and it was prohibited in their contract with you. And even if they sue, they would have to show actual damages to collect anything...
