This is how to end it CCP
DON'T REFUND CLONE PACKS
What allows profit from district locking is the fact that when no objectives are hacked the game interprets it as the battle not taking place so the attacking corp is refunded the clone pack and the defending corp generates clone sales. This system was put into place in case of server crashes that prevent battles from taking place so that the two corps are refunded their clones and clone pack.
So when there is an actual server crash that cancels a battle the corporations can file a ticket and CCP can look into it and refund them that way. This prevents a corp from just farming a district with a shell corp.

If someone wants to lock Districts for whatever reason, let them, just make sure they're losing ISK. I agree with this.
Which would be simple to achieve by just not refunding clonepacks, if there is a real server issue that cancels a PC match then they can file a ticket to get refunded.

locking districts is cheating LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
u talk of CONQUEST, yet getting attacked isnt conquest. conquest is about conquering. youre not conquering anything if youre not keeping anything. locking districts is a game mechanic, its part of the game. its not a hack, its not a glitch. its a purposefully placed aspect of PC. yes, its abused a little too much, but then again......so are REs. and RRs. so....anything thats used a lot is abusing it, eh? think about that.
District locking isn't an issue, the issue is profiting from it
By attacking a district with a shell corp and no showing the battle the game interprets it as the battle happening so it refunds the clone pack to the attacking corp and the defending corp generates clone sales. This system was put into place in case of server crashes that prevented PC matches from taking place.
If a corps wants to lock districts thats fine but they should loose ISK in the process. Its why a corp like 40 man corp (pradox one) has been able to lock 9-10 districts everyday for a month and they are profiting from it even though they don't have the means to defend them.
