And risk being locked out of the world’s online marketplace and all of Amazon’s other businesses? Maybe a bit hyperbolic but that’s where we are headed for sure.

It's perfectly feasible to never use Amazon. I don't know your situation, but i think people should go out more and prefer quality over quantity. Most of the stuff that Amazon sell is crap anyway.

The world's marketplace is alibaba.com, or aliexpress.com for individual orders.

You can find 99% of the junk on amazon on aliexpress for a lower price, though without prime shipping.

Have you never been banned in a video game and wanted to get back in? You create a new account and call it a day.

It's not like you should feel bad about playing dirty with a company that considers it fine to just steal $1k.

For $1000 I'd definitely risk it and kick up a fuss about it if they locked me out.
