This is the law that governs my consumer reports/credit reports. Proof that your Credit Reporting Agency is the information highlighted on my credit report. Accuracy means all values are deemed correct, so accuracy is a measure of value. Value can only be determined by a human being/living being/natural person. So when congress references accuracy, they are leaving it up to me to determine whether my credit reports are of any value to me. Fairness is no one person is taking unjust advantage of another.
