@computersandblues there's a good reason to lock and abandon rather than delete your account: someone can then take over the same username and more easily pretend to be you

A market does not need a state. Nor does it need approval or popularity; it just needs supply, and demand. Sure, you might not be able to get a car on a “grey” market (you can) or a house (you can) but that doesn’t mean the market is meaningless. To those that make their living providing the supply, and to those whose lives are enriched by fulfilling their own demand, that market, in its simplicity, in its temporality, was still a market.
