I agree with the risk difference. A public name with kids is not the same exposure as an anon with nothing to lose. But transfer of ownership is not something we get to demand. XMRBazaar is Doug's successful business venture, not just Monero community infrastructure. Telling someone to hand over rights because it would be better for the rest of us is the opposite of the market we claim to want. The code and setup also are not resilient. One abuse report already took the VPS down once. A next-gen Monero marketplace that can survive this environment has to be written from scratch -- distributed nodes, no single switch. XMRBazaar should stay strictly on the safe side. That hardened version has to be created and managed by trusted but completely anon people. Not the ones with a name and kids.
