Good to see Blogger.com cares about spam
Due to family issues I didn't blog much recently. Today I tried to update an older post and got this
A bit weird though, because I don't run AdSense or other advertising, I've comment moderation on, and don't post w/o entering the captchas. Probably my sidebar links have triggered a filter. Oh well.
What really bothers me is that Blogger tells me they'll delete my blog if they don't get a review request within 10 days or so. That could happen when I'm sick, traveling, or for tons of other reasons. Since they've my email addy, a warning by email would be suitable.
I've submitted the review request and look forward to reading the promised email reply from the Blogger team.
Update: A few hours later I got this email:

Most probably the sidebar links.
