In CRISPR/Cas as defense mechanism, how does the system know when to stop integrating spacers into the genome?

When there is an infection, a new spacer is acquired and I think there should be a limit about how many spacer the organism can have. Is there any paper about spacer regulation? Thank you.

In CRISPR/Cas as as defense mechanism, why can we transform bacteria if they have a system against exogen genetic material?

If the CRISPR/Cas system can recognize several PAM sequences, how can bacteria be transformed?
