I hold a ham radio licence in a couple of countries, although what's happening here is far outside of the remit of ham operations.
I'm pretty certain this is not legal in my locale, but I don't think the author of the article is making this out to be legal - and I don't think they should get in trouble for any of this publishing [assuming you're adressing them, not the commenter]. Perhaps the equivalent of a script kiddy could get up to no good with it, nothing new from the last 20 years of computer hacking then.
I'd far rather see enforcement and ire directed at the proliferation of poorly shielded junk that spews noise all over the spectrum, at surprisingly high power, that seems to have no trouble being sold online or imported for sale in many countries - and is often, strictly speaking, not legal with regards to necessary EMC, and probably safety, standards.
