I can't comment about SES. Don't use it. Didn't mention it in my
previous message.
Though, since you brought it up, the fact that Amazon imposes any limits
on their SES customers (sending quotas), has a initial sandbox that allows
a miniscule 200 msgs a day, and requires customers to demonstrate the need
to increase those limits suggests they are paying more than lip-service to
fighting spam.
They also have a published and current AUP:
https://aws.amazon.com/aup/
A working abuse team:
abuse AT amazonaws DOT com
and an online form where you can report EC2 abusers:
https://aws.amazon.com/forms/report-abuse
Suggesting AWS doesn't care seems...well...inaccurate.
