Curious if you'll publish your NoCeM details in the 'registry' or announce otherwise? I went ahead and added your entry and key, but may be worth announcing somewhere so others can take advantage. Or maybe you did somewhere and I missed it.
As the situation with Google
escalated over the last couple of days, I decided to start publishing the NoCeM notices in news.lists.filters right away

My original plan was to run a burn-in test for 4 weeks and then submitting all necessara information to the NoCeM registry. As the situation with Google escalated over the last couple of days, I decided to start publishing the NoCeM notices in news.lists.filters right away and do the administrative
work as my limited time allowed.
Ivo has already posted the link to Eternal-September's NoCeM page
https://www.eternal-september.org/index.php?showpage=nocem
More information will be added to that page as the work progresses
and I will submit all required information to the NoCeM registry.

On which hierarchies are you running this filter?
I run the filter on ALL articles originating from Google Groups
and I noticed that some postings to pl.* are blocked already.
OTOH, spam from GG seems to be carefully crafted for specific hierarchies
or even newsgroups. I need to take a closer look at pl.* to find out
the specifics for this type of spam.
Thanks!

And by the way, sometimes some contents (or maybe Subject?) of spam
messages ends up in the notice as well. See this msgid for example:
Message-ID: <20231012111504$ff6e@news.eternal-september.org>
It contains these lines:
#v+
<873b5879-ed41-4b22-9dcd-24488b878783n@googlegroups.com> soc.culture.punjab
=20
=20

So two proper msgids and some spam text between them.
I'm not sure how or if it affects NoCeM processing but it might be worth looking at.

perl-nocem will just ignore these lines, because it's looking for a <message.id>, so this is an esthetic problem and doen't cause
any problem otherwise.
I just looked at posting statistics per group (I collect them daily):
http://news.chmurka.net/stats.php
(it's in Polish, but it's mostly data anyway)
It looks like only pl.soc.polityka has been affected by it so far.
I processed all NoCeM notices that I have on news.lists.filters and it cleaned up comp.lang.c, but there's still this spam on pl.soc.polityka. Is there any chance for you to run the filter on all posts that are on this group and emit a NoCeM notice for them?
I have a list of all spam messages in pl.soc.polityka (~4000).
Since you are looking for a way to save these articles prior
deleting them, I will not sent a NoCeM report for these articles
without prior warning, so please inform me when it's OK to send it.
