"With that in mind, is there a system of triggers that can flag issues for manual review or intervention instead of being handled completely automatically?" I can't speak for the ads folks at all, unfortunately, but on the websearch side we certainly strive to do as much as we can algorithmically, but also to use our manual cycles effectively. The site in question was flagged algorithmically, but also sent to a member of the manual webspam team who concluded that it violated our quality guidelines. When a reconsideration request came in, it went back to a manual person for review again. To the extent we can figure out ways to do it without compromising our systems, I think both websearch and ads would like to be as transparent as we can.
