There's not a way you could choose which people/groups you trust (and don't) to classify spam correctly? Don't open source adblockers work like this?
- lrem 6y agoDon't they use some reasonably reviewable methods, like regular expressions? And, more importantly, reviewable volumes? Also, an ad blocker can always have a debug mode, where it can show you a rule that removed the element. With ad blocking you have none of that. Gigabytes of text go into training, kilobytes of inscrutable numbers go out. And all the debug info you get is how certain the computer sounded saying no.
