Does Supernews have spam filters of their own in place?

I'm using the former Supernews and see no spam this morning. Supernews
got bought by Giganews. Supernews was known for highly efficient and
functional spam filters. Apparently, the Giganews staff is still
maintaining the filters, but there's no guarantee it will continue
forever.

75 headers killed is highly unusual here, that's why I commented.
Usually downloading headers only shows 1 or 2 filtered and they're
almost always just those from the "obnoxia" ;-)
