"hahaha" ?

No.  It only proves that it works for you on the (limited from an
infinite) set of data that you've put to it.    And that's all it proves.

*Understanding* what the filter does, I do not think it will work
(meaning detecting all suspected correctly, and without false positives)
on a very large set of data.
