I hate to send this to the list, but cerf.net, which apparently feeds
idci.net, replied and said they "wrapped the site from our servers".
("Our" meaning cerf.net.) I have no clue what that meant. When I got the
IDCI response, I forwarded it with a complaint to cerf.net.

I suggest everyone who gets that lame rogue-site spew from idci.net send a
polite complaint to cerf.net and whoever else feeds these clowns.
