But then, of course, anyone with access to such an account could update said account with another credit card and keep on truckin'. Of course, freebies acquired from sites that don't require a credit card account (e.g., comiXology, Feedbooks, Gutenberg) would never be the wiser.

Do you think Amazon would catch on when their are still books being purchased on the same account after 150 years? Or will they just think you are very long lived?
