When you search for something on Google and MR does have the info, the link here is among the very first results. So I can imagine that when you search for Closed Amazon Account, MR is among top results. Combine this with nice atmosphere here and the fact that most comments are written in good English in a cultured manner [when compared to many other sites ;-)].

This high Google ranking reflects the fact that MR is very friendly place with lots of competent people to answer questions about e-books and e-book readers. MR is also very often linked to from other sites, which helps with Google ranking.

I guess I was struggling to understand why, if there is a trend at Amazon to shoot first, and ask questions later - why long term MR kindle users weren't reporting occurances. ...however, these are very fair points - my apologies to the OP...
