Novara Media (@novaramedia) reportedEbay has been ordered to pay a $55.7m settlement to an American couple over a harassment campaign by company executives which included doxing, online threats and the delivery of live cockroaches to their home. The orchestrated campaign, which lasted for two months in the summer of 2019, was waged against husband and wife David and Ina Steiner by six eBay employees and one contractor. The couple were targeted after posting criticism of eBayโs corporate and policy changes on their newsletter and website EcommerceBytes, which is popular among eBay sellers, Wired reported. The campaign began with anonymous threats via Twitter DMs before ramping up to malicious deliveries to the Steiner family home. Items sent to the couple included pornography, a bloody pig mask, pests such as fly larvae, live spiders and cockroaches, a book about grieving a spouse and a funeral wreath. Ebay employees had the Steiners trailed in a rented van and posted fake classified ads on Craigslist advertising a ******* party, a ********* and a yard sale with their home address. After the police were contacted, the harassment campaign tailed off as those involved sought to conceal their actions. Former eBay CEO Devin Wenig told Wired via a representative that he was โsaddenedโ by the harassment. He has continually asserted that he had no knowledge of the specific actions taken by the group who carried out the campaign. Wenig is alleged to have given former eBay chief communications officer Steve Wymer the order to โtake her down,โ in reference to Ina Steiner. However, his lawyers claim he was referring to a communications plan and not any criminal behaviour, a claim supported by court documents according to Wired. Six former eBay staff and a contractor were charged with taking part in the campaign in 2020. The Steiners followed with a civil suit the following year. The case has now reached a final settlement which will award the Steiners more than $46.15m from eBay, $2m from former CEO Devin Wenig, $500,000 from former executive Wendy Jones, and $50,000 from former executive Steve Wymer. David Steiner told Wired: โWe were really adamant that this type of behaviour by a Fortune 500 corporation didnโt go unchecked.โ In a published statement, eBay said that what the Steiners were subjected to was โwrong, reprehensible and should never have happened,โ and that the company had strengthened its policies, controls and training since the incident.

Danielle Dyer (@danielle4657) reportedI'm pretty positive my sister was the one that attempted to organize the institutionalization at UNM's ER on May 10th 2025 I know what the staging of the ER is - it's like thing they try to pressure patients to go to because you have such little rights there for inquiry / access to patient information related to the exam I was screaming outside of that Roswell, NM hotel on May 10th 2025 as my dad put me into the car - begging him not to take me saying I had been being made to go insane all day in Roswell was agitators, crazy makers and my dad saying to me that I was just having issues still because I had told him about the ***** trafficking thing, same with my mom both of them still not believing me about it believing he was some craigslist kind of scammer or something

ApexPrognosticator (@PrognosticApex) reported@BrandyLJensen I got shut out of marketplace weeks ago due to some age verification glitch that I've submitted a problem report for like half a dozen times and am told it will take 48 hours to resolve. 3 weeks later.... And my only option is still craigslist.

FAFO Farms (@FAFOFarmsTX) reportedSad news the calf did not make it. We brought him inside at 7pm because he could no longer stand. We gave him a second round of electrolytes for the day. 20 minutes later he was starting to move his legs and head and his breathing was getting fuller. After getting the twins down to sleep came back out at 930pm to him no longer moving or breathing. The people who sold us him also have not responded since I reached out earlier today. This is heart breaking and stressful. We are now 3 for 3 in getting cows/calfs that are not healthy through craigslist.

Citizen (@afistfulofteeth) reported@MidlifeCrysis_ It still canโt be functionally equivalent at all. Consumer initiated transfers transfers work from a business standpoint or a legal stand point. If this were to happen, then Sony would be getting in the middle of sale disputes between random people. Bob down the street could agree to trade games with his neighbor Steven. Then go to initiate the transfer from Sony (or do it themselves if you think that would happen). Then the key gets transferred and what happened? Steven didnโt pay Bob!! Who would they have to go to fix this or dispute it? Sony! This is just one instance. Multiply that by millions. You have to think about the big picture. Companies arenโt going to put themselves out there to be legally liable for crackheads selling video game licenses on Craigslist.

Sarah Saturday (@Saturdaymatters) reported7 HIGH-PRESSURE SITUATIONS GOLDEN HIPPO PUT ME THROUGH IN 10 YEARS 1) Every brand was banned from all ad networks at the same time. Revenue on the front end went to zero. People were wondering if we'd have to shut the company down. That's when I found out I do my best work when things are actually on fire, not when it's a drill. 2) I made my first $1M/month during that crisis. Before that, I didn't think email was exciting. I was excited about the revenue number, not the channel. I didn't understand what email could actually do until it was the only thing left standing between us and closing. 3) The higher-ups noticed, and changed how they ran the whole team because of it. What I did under pressure became the new expectation for everyone else. That was the first time I saw performance turn into policy. 4) We built an entire brand, filming, backend, everything, and the front end just never took off. We walked away. Years later I took the backend strategy from that โfailedโ brand and used it on a different one that was actually trending. The month I spent on the first one wasn't wasted. It just paid off late. 5) They handed a small team a brand they'd basically given up on, told us to just play with it, and nicknamed it The Sandbox. It's now one of their most profitable brands, and most people don't even know it's theirs. 6) Less than a year into my marketing career, I built a product testing program from scratch, starting with people I recruited off Craigslist to try products and answer surveys. I had no business running something modeled after a medical study. It evolved into the system they still run today. It became core to how they validate products before launch. 7) For years I couldn't let go of any brands I had already optimized. I thought it was faster to just do things myself than teach someone else how. They kept pulling me off writing and putting me on copy chief instead, training other writers rather than producing the copy myself. It felt like a demotion from the thing I was actually good at. What I didn't see yet was that every hour I spent training someone made me need them less later, not more.

Nick Huber (@sweatystartup) reportedWhen I was graduating college, I could have taken an $80K/yr job in 2012. Instead, I started a business carrying boxes up and down spiral staircases, driving a beat up $1,500 cargo van I bought off Craigslist. I wasn't passionate about pickup and delivery student storage. I just saw a need from other students who were willing to pay me to do this work. I traded my time for money and built the skills, capital, and network I needed to get to the next level. It's hard to imagine where I'd be if I never took that leap.
