Also just ratchets the value of "old email accounts" up a ton. Reddit has a similar problem with fraud coming from old tenured accounts with karma (upvote points similar to HN) becoming very valuable and targets for hackers and spammers. I don't know about new addresses, but it sounds like more robust vetting is needed on the interviewing side. Resumes and initial screens have become potentially stale and too easy to fake.
