Permissions for unsolicited Permissions

Framed Redirects is the term used whereby one site retains a visitor by providing the content of another site within a window on their site. The net result is to deprive the copyright holder of the benefits of that visitor and deceives the visitor into thinking that the contents are on that site. It is akin to republishing an article or book without that persons permission.
