If someone puts up a toll booth on only one lane of a multi-lane highway, it's not "stealing" when the drivers change lanes. It just means that whoever decided to implement the toll booth that way wasn't very bright.

I based my comment on my belief that some one would have to enter a 4 line script to get it to work. Something as trivial turning off java script or viewing page source is a different matter all together.
