Looks like you can "feed the drama" by sending unauthenticated JSON messages to an endpoint that the site specifies?
Fortunately, nobody on the internet has the urge to break things just for the hell of it, so I'm sure everything will be fine.

Only 4 active connections allowed per site on a popular HAM webring? Never hogged by bots.
Site that allows minimally authenticated posting of aircraft ACARS messages? Never seen it hijacked for ads.
Physics-limited space for nearly untracable HF radio transmissions that can span half the US? Handfull of trolls that voluntarily relegate themselves to the 'troll freqs'.
It's no surprise the site allows unauthenticated JSON; in the rest of the hobby the FCC makes most types of security outright illegal.
Hams make an entire sport of of this ("fox hunting"), and the FCC has a network of automated monitoring stations dotted across the country specifically to determine the location of rogue radio transmissions.
That said, most of the time it's easier to just ignore the radio trolls.
While they can do this if they choose to do so, nothing at the FCC's Enforcement Bureau has a lower priority than amateur radio and CB.
