Finnish web mirror

The above machine has been mindlessly mirroring my web server including the LVM stuff. The LVM data has no links from anywhere else and has only been mentioned here and on debian-devel. As announcing other things in debian-devel hasn't got this result I presume that the person running that annoying Finnish machine is on this list.
I have put in a null-route for the machine to stop them downloading from my site. Downloading lots of files from a web server comprising multiple versions of programs (including obsolete versions) and multiple versions of binaries is annoying if the web server is on a slow link.
If someone feels that they have a genuine need for mirroring my site then they should inform me and I will tell them how to do so without wasting their hard drive space and my bandwidth.

It's probably a proxy...
