I strongly suspect that there is a bottleneck at available labor to deal with the reports, but I'm working on the following assumptions: * more data cannot hurt * some types of spam users go under-reported or not reported at all due to not bothering other users directly (they may get spam email, but delete it without noticing where the links go) * my suggested method is likely to net some of said under-reported spammers * it is the ones who are not bothering other users directly who are the primary cause of this specific Spamhaus complaint * the reports can be dealt with one by one and suspended individually (I suspect the labor bottleneck is here) * the reports may also be used as a data mine by their analysts
