I did, and I have. But I only get to see the page *after* MS has
disabled it.
I have clients asking "Why?". They are not complaining, just asking how
it works, they are glad we are disabling suspected fraud. I would like
to say what the system is looking for and provide a valid example in
before and after states.
The bottom line, it works, and works well. But I don't want to sound
stooopid because I can't explain how it works with confidence.

Three years now I've asked Google why they don't have a
logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos
for other non-international holidays, but nothing for
Veterans?
Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible.
