Sloperator attempts to send their AI agents to scan the decentralised volunteer run network DN24 at a rate of 100Gbps. The DN24 members decide to mess with the agent causing the sloperator a very high AWS bill. Great success.

Beware of criminal liability. Maliciously causing damage is very much on the line to the criminal. Also causes environmental damage etc.
But in this case there’s nothing to be liable for. The AWS bill had nothing to do with DN42’s trolling. It is not clear how much in tokens their trolling cost, but the figure provided in the headline refers to the provisioned AWS resources. Had the scanning been actually performed, it could have been even higher.
