Heh, indeed. With minor tweaks (I've seen the patches floating around) making contacts can be fully automated.
It's much like the early days of the internet when people would tail -f /var/log/http/access.log and keep track of how many countries contacted their webserver.
At least there's not a js8call which gasp actually allows keyboard to keyboard chat. Even allows relaying through a 3rd party as well as async communications through a storage and forward process.
Many hams find contesting traffic to be a nuisance.
