Why is Audiogon insisting on a verified physical address in order to post?


Quick question

I just had to enter a verified address into my profile in order to continue posting here.

Does anyone know why that took place?   I don't really love posting my physical address on user groups like this.    

Did anyone else have to do this?
Thanks

@nonoise Agree that most everything one does on the web if possible is monetized. The forum side of Agon infromes and supports the buy/sell side and thus the need for those required fill in the blanks.

Our digital trails are a regrettable appendage of our life’s today. Some if it is good say if you have a medical problem or want to sell your speakers.

I once read a book of his letters. Much as we do now of going on line in the AM to check things and take care of texts or notes w/ friends, back in Groucho's day they read the paper and wrote letters. He was a great writer more erudite in his letters than his corn ball persona in film.

I deleted one post with a whopper typo.
