ebaY PayPal buyout, in an article in the Deal, it was reported that they believe the U.S. Justice Department will expand its antitrust investigation into ebaY's buyout of PayPal. The DOJ review is focusing on whether the transaction would hurt small
businesses and other payment processors. If PayPal users who are troubled by this buyout, please make sure you send your concerns to the DOJ and FTC. A loud and vociferous objection, should at least get some restrictions put in place to control what access ebaY has to past records, and limit what ways ebaY can force PayPal down their customers throats. This is one time that individuals can make a REAL difference in an important outcome in this industry. Don't forget to contact your Senators and Congressional Representatives also. The more concern expressed the more likely protections will be enforced as part of the deal.

Hey Tomwii,
Are you an Orange sports fan or a SU Grad?
This "old Geezer" needed ten minutes to figure out what you just said. But the article I posted above is for information only and was taken from Tagnotes which is a newsletter which reports Ebay activities. It does not necessarily reflect my views and I claim no to it other then the devils advocate position.
