The lack of filter availability doesn't stop spammers bypassing even Google's uber-filters, so it's not much of an argument really. The arm race is what it is. The point is having a system that can react fast enough to remove the spam from most systems once it is identified.

Then you need a system for distributing filter updates, and preventing the spammers from distributing bogus filter updates. Isn't this basically just the same problem as before?
