"It looks like E-bay gave up."

Did they "give up" or did they allow greed "the love of making more money" overrule California political correctness. I want to maintain my faith in human nature, so I will vote for greed.

Maybe I am wrong and the real reason is that the founder of e-Bay has now gone over as CEO of HP to manage its continued failures and eventually cessation of business, and the current management are not political correct focused.
