Granted, either both or neither should be "use." However, there is
nothing about finding both a use that requires the same result in
both cases, or precludes the same result in both cases. (A denial of
service result can derive from too many messages, regardless of their
content, but the number of messages (qualitatively speaking) might
distinguish between de minimus or if not de minimus, perhaps
consented, uses and those that are not.)
