Some jackass is pinging my site with bogus referer information, all from the same couple of IPs.

<yawn> banned for now. I’ll figure out if I need to do anything further.
<update> I made the refers results page restricted access which is what this is all about somehow: spamming my referers with junk.
And I got an email from the owner of the site that stands to benefit most: he denied anything to do with it or knowledge of it, though I think of the president (an object of worship for my correspondent) and his unaffiliated attack groups. They’re not under his control but they might as well be. . . . .
