Ebay Seller Sues Over Libelous "Feedback"
An eBay Seller is taking the online auction giant to court over allegedly libelous statements made about the Seller in eBay's "feedback" mechanism, which allows buyers and sellers to leave comments about each other's performance that other users are then able to see. The Seller, who had auctioned some vintage radio magazines, was accused of shipping the goods late and in poor condition. After the Seller was unable to get eBay to remove the negative feedback, he brought suit in California Superior Court against both the Buyer and eBay.
The lawsuit aims at having eBay change its feedback policies, and of course a few million bucks for good measure. Yahoo News covers the Reuters release .[GrepLaw]
