Apparently "Trolling" predates  computer networks, as british  in the 1920s  interfered with each other's radio reception when they attempted to both tune in correctly and make the reception louder. People would "dob in" their neighbors who they thought were offenders.

This finally ended with more powerful transmitters and changes in radio design. The technique survived as the Theremin!
