It was done to not have millions of "my internet connection does not
work, how do I fix it" type bug reports, where the reporters never
returned to bugzilla anyway. So, now you need to have an account (so you
will be informed of the status of your bug), and people without edit_bug
can't mark bugs as confirmed, they have to be confirmed by someone who does.

There just need to be more people who can and do.
