Re: Check this out, peeps

I raised a Google DMCA request with the 4 URLs mentioned in OP and initial replies: reference #1-5629000004357.

Edit: oh, and my pitchfork and placards are ready when the mob moves into action.

Heh. Without going into too much detail, was the [redacted] forum one of the clone targets, Mr Apricot?

Edit: removed the website reference.

So if you can, find the IP’s and block them off.

Done:

Deny from 172.246.128.229

Thanks for the report. This issue should be fixed for now.

I stopped counting.

Looks like these are mostly wannabe “search engines”. They won’t do much harm, I suppose.

Thought maybe they were hijacking the same DNS info and the two domains would resolve to identical IPs, but they don’t.

I believe this is a simple proxy.

Re: Check this out, peeps

I was wondering if we could add a javascript which checks the domain and if it is not ours, it provides for a redirection here. Something like this idea. I know it will not solve the problem 100% but it might work for some such sites.
