So does this mean anyone can selectively game the freezing (DoS) of any stock by throwing spurious social media activity?

Sure. Try it with something worth more than zero and see if you can grab a significant position in order to make the scam worthwhile. Consider what the margins to make a killing on a pump and dump look like on a stock that sells for $100/ share.

Every generation thinks they invented scams.
