Couldn't one theoretically write a crontab script to automatically renew their account, hence defeating the purpose of renewals?
Yes, but this would be beyond the technical ability of most users. The few users capable of doing so would probably realise that the tiny inconvenience of having to renew their account every six months is better than the risk of being discovered and losing their account permanently.
