It's as if the people running these major trading sites could learn from WordPress on how to secure them better.

Hard to tell if this was about securing the site or just shady owners swindling noobs.

We call this "Libertarian education in action".

We've replaced the regulated marketplaces you usually use with Folger's crystals, errr, a Libertarian paradise market where the only thing keeping Dmitri in Kazakhstan from stealing all your money is His Good Name And Reputation. Let's see if you notice.

"So there are no police, only private security guards. There are no “laws” per se, but most people deal with trade disputes through private “loser pays” arbitration courts. So contracts between organizations and people define what the “law” is. Murder, rape, and other violent crimes are basically non-existent, but when they do occur, communities typically ensure justice is swiftly dealt. You might call it vigilantism by community consensus. People don’t take very kindly to murders, thieves, and rapists in their neighborhoods if you catch my drift. Since everyone is usually armed, robbing or hurting someone typically winds up like a gun store robbery today. The person attempting the crime gets gunned down rather swiftly or driven out of town by private security. Lord help them if they kill someone."
