At least they aren't adding any banner, as happens with the .it domain.
Pietrodn in 2009 found a way to get people out of the trap: adding
if (top != self)
top.location.replace('http://toolserver.org/~pietrodn/wikipedia_redirect.php');
to [[MediaWiki:Common.js]] (cf.
https://fisheye.toolserver.org/browse/pietrodn/php/wikipedia_redirect.php?hb=true
) we redirected about a million visitors to the correct URL (informing
them about it) and now the domain itself has partly surrendered and
redirects to the real URL (with a banner...). I don't know if it would
work in this case (there are also some minor drawbacks).
Sadly, only the WMF could recover such domains, but they've never been
interested.
