Hello,
is there any way to report spamming users to Google so they block them
or is Google just a nasty company that supports sending spam?
Is there a relevant amount of legit posts from Google Groups or is it
just the best idea to put all post from Google in the killfile?

Nothing but twits and trolls in Google groups.
I have reported spammers to google, no avail.
Once you log into your google account try
https://groups.google.com/search/conversations?q=Depeer%20Google%20Groups

Not all posts are rubbish that come from there, but many.

I have seen the question , whether there is a way to get Google to block >people who spam through googlegroups , asked many times and I've never seen a >positive reply so probably no. I think googlegroups provide a way to mark a >post as something bad (spam , pornographic , etc.) but how it affects the >post I'm not sure.

Seriously?
Spam isn't fought on a "mark a post" basis, and it isn't fought by
"blocking spamming users". Google Groups peers with sites that are spam >sources. A proper spam countermeasure is performed on the feed, not >individual users and not after receiving the feed. It's not like Google >Groups would act upon NoCeM's.
Anyone posting to this newsgroup should be well aware of the basics of
spam countermeasures, including the sockpuppet Marco Moock, who has
asked that question numerous times in the past.
