I'm glad you asked this. Firstly, no one should post ANYTHING, spoiler tag or not, until at least midnight Eastern Time after the show. The reason? The West Coast sees the show at 8pm PDT, or at 11pm EDT, so early posts could ruin the show for them.
As for how long with the tag after that, I don't know. Our non-US TFPers don't get the show until weeks or months after we do, so I guess it's up to them.
I enjoyed the show last night. Spoiler:
For the first time since the Amazon (and Africa before that), I genuinely felt that the environment was providing a hardship on the castaways. They always paid lipservice to the bugs and heat and stuff before, but besides being tired, those tribes didn't seem to suffer too much. Here, there were several people whom the producers had to seriously think about stepping in and providing medical assistance for (and who knows, maybe they did when the cameras were off). If these physical hardships continue, it will be a lot less about petty squabbling and high school back stabbing and more about true survival. Last night they showed zero strategizing prior to the first vote, simply because the campsite resembled a triage more than a gameshow.
