Want to talk Stupid, let's talk Google Groups.
I've given up on reporting people posting through Google Groups
posting blogspot spam. I have a usenet filter specifically to drop GG posts.
Google just doesn't care. I have spam posts going back 3 years Google
has done nothing about.
I finally got an answer at least about blogspot: Once they delete a
blogspot page because of Spam, there's nothing to prevent the person
from recreating the page.
