Ebay is a private company and they can choose how people pay when users use their site. There is absolutely zero legal basis for a lawsuit, which is why Google hasn't done anything. Should Diners Club sue Red Lobster since Red Lobster doesn't accept DC cards as payment? There is no monopoly, since ebay allows users to use other payment systems (ProPay, Moneybookers, Paymate, actual merchant cards, etc). Even if Paypal was the only service allowed, that is not how monopolies work, and to think otherwise is laughable. Ebay is not the only place to buy items on the internet.
