If you get relevant input data which is also different from the existing SURBLs. See my reply to Rob, for e-mail the enlargement or viagra stuff isn't really better than XXX.
And filtering Web pages is a completely different business.
We can't use the raw, unwhitelisted SpamCop data since it could easily be poisoned.
Yes, I know this. It's good to remove errors and innocent bystanders. And it's good to require a minimal number of votes for the "democracy in action". But as soon as errors, joe jobs, and innocent bystanders are removed, and the number of votes is above the required minimum, the result should be clear. I've quoted the relevant part of data.html in my reply to Rob.
I see it differently.
Then you won't vote for spamarrest.com. As long as all votes are equal there's no problem. Otherwise it's arbitrariness.
Did you report them?
I report my spam via SpamCop. I'm not interested in the laws of Washington, Taiwan, or any other state you care to name, because I'm not yet planning to sue this or any other spammer.
But my vote in the case of spamarrest.com is clear, and you would nullify it :-( Where's that "democracy in action" as promised on your Web page, is it only _fictitious_ ? Bye.
