These guys are dirty thieves. I, and others, are getting pingbacks daily from c/p’ed content.

    Couldn’t you change your .htaccess file to block access from the domain? (or, even better - redirect to a whole load of different content?)

    You could add a little footer to every post to the effect of ‘This post originated at http://www.cimota.com/blog - if you can read this then you’re either reading it from a direct RSS feed or it’s been stolen by some filthy thieving scum who’s nicked our content for their own nefarious ends.’ and then have some css to hide that from your own site.
