Yes - this is the best thing you can do. As long as you don’t intend to apply for a loan / credit anyplace in the direct near term that is timing crucial ( home purchase etc.).
The only downside I know of is they might make you jump through hoops to unfreeze. My dad had a hell of a time unfreezing - YMMV of course. It took him months…..
The freeze is pretty painless as should the unfreeze be for most.
I put a "freeze" on all three of the credit agencies, it's easy to do so DO IT!!
