Speculation obviously, but I agree.

I don't think eBay is officially targeting anyone or has a policy to intimidate and harass critics.

But is it possible there are bad elements in the hobby that have their "man on the inside"? Could there be a rogue element within eBay in the pocket of certain sellers?

Over the past 6 months or so, based on the consistent pattern of a) mass-produced bad material no longer being regularly removed as it once was, and b) bad things suddenly happening to critics, it seems clear to me.
