Also, they own Paypal which itself has tons of issues (it had them before the purchase and apparently those issues continue as regular HN posts show).
They spun Paypal off into an independent company in 2015.
Ebay is moving away from its tight integration with Paypal and has a deal with a new payment processor (Adyen) after it's current paypal deal ends in 2020. Between that and the fact that they're two public companies with separate freely traded ownership, it's hard for me to buy the argument that the spin off was "just for show".
