I can see something. It's the future! Yes! I can see a DMCA takedown!

That is some violation of any number of copyright laws there. It's positively amusing. :-D

I think Jeph appreciates being told about sites like that (which pop up all too often) so that he can get them removed.

Problem is, I have no idea how to contact him directly.  I know he is a twitterer but I dont use that so my best avenue was to post it here  :-D

He hardly ever looks here, so this is the least effective way of reaching him. 

His email address: <jephco at mac dot com> is on the comic's "contact" page, and I believe that works; he says he gets a lot of email, so he doesn't necessarily answer personally - even to messages he appreciates (I've never had an email reply from him).  There's also a link to his Tumblr, which is another good way to be reasonably sure your message gets read; for general queries, he batches up selected answers into QA posts on the Tumblr.  I guess Twitter would also work; but this feels unnatural to me, but that's my problem (I find a lack of clarity about what's private or public on Twitter and Facebook, so try to avoid them).

Fired a tweet off at him. Dunno if he's gotten anything similar.

I'd avoid publicly broadcasting the offending URL if I were you though, no need to enable the cheapskate's fraud…

The link got shortened, and not sure any other way to get him to notice it.

DOS questionablecontent.net with machines that all have relevant hostnames? That would probably get his attention, though I'm not too sure he'd appreciate it...

That's like blowing up the White  House because you have to get the president's attention on a matter of National Security...it's just wrong. :psyduck:
