Experian has my best Fico score. What does this mean? Will lenders still pull Experian reports?

In that cnbc article, I read something that I was unaware of:

"In 2008, Equifax was released as a Defendant after the two companies agreed to significantly expand their relationship."

So I guess we're safe from Equifax doing the same thing that Experian just did.
