Don't let the needles of truth be a casulty within the haystacks of spam by censoring anything, but instead offer website filtering blacklists or spam-filtering options on open communication forums (fyi, new twitter doesn't quite count as it still censors legal content), but be sure to include another feed that can show everything that was 'filtered out' so that the user accounts posting spam and the accuracy of the filter itself can be audited if need be (whether it's a filter made by a user's trusted curators flagging stuff on their own behalf and sharong that filtering, or also some automated algorithm(s) that picks up on the particular user's feedback from the 'hide post' and 'report post' interactions.

As long as the option for 'non-association' is not being blocked, then no policing of spam is EVER necessary, unless it is evil trying to gain that power to police non-spam too so they can get away with their evil. So prepare and expect that evil is going to go after voluntary spam filtering platforms to grant themself the excuse that 'information policing is necessary' to excuse their policing of information that exposes them for what they are.

Edit: illegal stuff eg. doxxing, being left uncensored problem needs to be handled in another way than spam filtering; where warrants can be made for a crime commited on the platform to the platform admin; this is in both cases of a centralised platform domain or federated instance domain. Then the crime can be auto-filtered and criminal address can be attained.

Has the accountability for crimes been worked out in law already?

A human drives a car badly, such that it is considered resulting in 'intentional murder', is it also the case that an autonomous driving system that drives in the same way would be considered intentional (murder) or not?

And if a car murders someone due to autonomous reckless driving, then is the company charged with a murder? how does that work? who goes to prison for that? all the engineering team and the people who sold it? just the people who sold it? do they split a life sentence between them or each get one of their own?
