Any chance the site was blocked in schools/workplaces? If it was, users didn't have a choice but try to use a mirror. You should setup some mirrors to help them.

iframing a site wouldn't typically work to dodge school/work content filters.

Oh right if it's just an Iframe. I found for my sites that some copycats do simple Iframe whereas some do url rewriting or content injection.

Iframing is ideal for that purpose, it pushes all the costs on the original content creator and pushes all the profits towards the assholes.

I guess if you start a free play in town and try to sell bus tickets to bring people to town, and I drive my friend there and ask him for money, I am an asshole.

what a world

Its more like pretending you put on the play and taking ticket money at the door without giving anything back.
