Yesterday in the Google Hangout at the 21:05 mark into the video, John Mueller said Google does not manually review all spam reports.
Question: We filed a spam report some time ago but I haven’t seen any change. Does every report get manually checked?
Answer: No. We don’t manually review all spam reports.
I honestly thought Google did review all spam reports. At least I think we reported that a year ago and the speed of review was pretty quick. But now John is saying now, they do not manually review all spam reports.
