The IRA also phoned about many of their bombs. The Omagh bombing is mostly notable because their phone-call didn't accurately identify where the bomb would detonate, and so got people killed.
Plenty of terrorist groups have recognized that killing innocent bystanders isn't good PR.

The Weather Underground planned one of its bombings to take place at night to minimise casualties, although they ended up killing some poor grad student who was working late.

TBH as long as there are no real bombs and no one is physically harmed or coerced, I fully support this sort of nonviolent disruption of the surveillance apparatus.
