I'll just quote an experiment conducted by my colleague, where they tracked the outright malicious (porn, malware or fraud) ads they reported from a regular user account: "from January to November 2024, we tested (...) 122 such malicious ads (...) in 106 cases (86.8%), the reports were closed with the status “We did not remove the ad”, in 10 cases the ad was removed, and in 6 cases, we did not receive any response". That's not very encouraging.
