I thought about simple web form available only for logged users of RIPE Atlas. In this way all private data are hidden and RIPE can rate limit usage of the form. Message itself can be send to probe's owner via email from RIPE Atlas infra so sender identity also can be hidden. If somebody wants to switch to email communication then form can also be used to exchange email addresses.

Hi, I agree that allowing RIPE Atlas users to send messages to probe hosts would be a useful feature. I also think that requiring someone to log in first before sending a message to the probe hosts is a sufficiently high bar against systematic abuse (to begin with -- we can be stricter later if needed). I can imagine the form also having a feature to let the original sender expose her email to the recipient to facilitate further communication. Regards, Robert
