That seems like it would be incredibly easy to DoS someone.
Indeed it is.
Why you could easily advertise an email on a tech news aggregate site asking people to use it to sign up for sites that may send you unwanted emails. You wouldn't even need to set up a webpage. That's if you didn't want to sort out a more direct method.
