This paying for relays for spam prevention is a temporary solution. Once spam becomes valuable enough that you make more than the cost in sats for the relays, then folks will just pay it and send spam. The cost in satoshi is similar to the cost of paying a person to do a captcha or validate a phone number. Then the question goes back to can the relay operators getting reports and checking behavior. I think Iris has it right by not pulling content that isn't connected to you via the social graph. But that doesn't help relays who still need to deal with spam.
