  I don’t think it’s that much of a security/reliability issue is just about every tech site and news site I go to, uses it.

  The built-in system isn’t conducive to getting comments. People don’t want to have to join a blog site just to comment.

  This is a multiuser blogging platform. Our blogs are not free standing. There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we bloggers cannot install any plugins. There is no upgrade you can purchase that will provide FTP access and the ability to install plugins, upload themes, and/or edit templates and themes in a free hosted WordPress.com blog.

  To use plugins you must hire a web host and then set up your own WordPress.org install. Please read this comparison > http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  They don’t have to. This page > Settings > Discussion is where you set up defaults for comments.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/discussion-settings/

  Discussion Settings
  Other comment settings
  _Comment author must fill out name and e-mail
  _Users must be registered and logged in to comment

  Note that the prompt to submit and email address and a website URL will still appear, but providing an email address and logging in are not required, and you cannot change this so the prompt does not appear.

  You can post instructions for your visitors in a text widget if you wish to set up anonymous commenting. That’s easy to do. You copy and paste this into a text widget:

  Readers: Note that the email address and logging in prompts do appear for comments on this blog, but providing an email address and logging in are not required.

  P.S. Do be sure to set up full comment moderation ie. “An administrator must always approve the comment” because anonymous commenting is bound to increase the amount of spam your blog will receive.
