Bad examples. As both have a RAC>1 whereas this account:
https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_user.php?userid=152754 does have a
URL set (it's my account) but you can't see it because RAC is less than
the threshold.

Which means, this way is already secured by a RAC threshold which so far
the spammers did not go for. This will get a problem once spammers
attach computers and get Credits.
