Normally I would agree with you, but in this case I think it's using a weapon against a similar weapon. HR automation tools are the worst. I was recently searching for a job, my resume is pretty fantastic. I have amazing experience and it was reviewed by many friends, it's great.

Despite that I got rejected from a job whose top duties included subjects on which I literally published books. Literally wrote books with subject matter in the title, got published by publishers (not self published) and yet I got an email saying I didn't fit the job. Got very few callbacks which isn't a normal thing, I'm pretty sure most jobs didn't even let an engineer see my resume.

Why is it OK to waste out time with these postings and automated filtering?

How is that not spam?

I think it's a DoS attack against a firewall posing as a front door.
