In particular, by now any spammer should know to get their domains

the domain anyway. If you look up the domain and it is registered
to a CN (or even HK) registrar, then consider it junk.
Chinese police is not famous for their softness, and they do seek and
prosecute spammers. However, there are very many people experiencing
rapid changes, so we cannot expect a smooth linear behavior.
With 70,000+ internet censors, they can peel off 700 of them to combat
internet crime - except the network operators are in many cases
colluding with the spammers, no doubt for a "cut".
I'm not sure why you say so. A few days ago Scott mentioned that
spammers use new domains because they can get a 4 days free usage of
each new name. A cut possibly costs more than regular renewals.
Spammers {also/only} take advantage of the foolishness of registrars,
ISPs, and users. Diagnosing correctly may help countering the problem.
