Can anybody explain to me why my blog is being duplicated by whoever this is?

http://pack.soksok.jp/y/.1kh6/mudita

In fact, they’re apparently duplicating all of zader.com. There’s something creepy about this. But I take cold comfort in the fact that they’re doing it for David and Diana, too.

UPDATE: Ah, the links superimposed at the top of those pages lead to some sort of oriental porn portals. Is this a traffic-generating scheme? I’m still confused about how it would work.

UPDATE.2: Okay, nevermind…. Seems to be happening to just about everybody. Try a google on soksok for more stories. It has been going on for at least several weeks now, and appears to involve making the sites accessible to Japanese cell phone users, promoting Jap crap porn, and/or pirating higher rankings from Google.

    hi, yes they are duplicating the entire web. I have just created a page on this and it tells how to stop your pages from being hijacked to advertise their porn. fyi
