EBay, former executives to pay $56 million to settle couple's harassment case

EBay (EBAY.O) and three former top executives have agreed to pay $55.7 million to resolve a lawsuit by a Massachusetts couple who fell victim to a ‌bizarre stalking and harassment campaign carried out by several of its employees in retaliation for their coverage of the e-commerce company in a newsletter they publish.
David and Ina Steiner announced the settlement late on Monday, bringing an end to a case they filed in 2021 in Boston federal court after several former eBay employees were prosecuted for targeting them in a cyber-stalking campaign that involved sending the couple cockroaches, fly larvae and a bloody Halloween pig mask.
As part of the settlement, eBay agreed to pay $46.15 million to the couple; fund $6 ⁠million in charitable contributions to nonprofit organizations; and issue a "strongly-worded" statement about the conduct of three of its top former executives.

"We believe this resolution sends a clear message that corporations and their executives cannot engage in this type of misconduct without facing significant consequences," Christopher Murphy, the Steiners' attorney, said in a statement.
EBay said in a statement that what happened to the Steiners was "wrong, reprehensible and should never have happened."
"We continue to extend our deepest apologies to the Steiners," the company said. "This agreement is consistent with our commitment to fairly compensate the Steiners and fulfills our efforts to make things right."
Seven former eBay workers pleaded guilty and received sentences of as high as 57 months in prison for participating in the scheme, which also involved several of them traveling from California to Natick, Massachusetts, to surveil the Steiners and try to install a GPS tracking device on their ‌car.

Prosecutors have ⁠said that the aim was to silence them after senior executives deemed their newsletter, EcommerceBytes, critical of the company. The campaign began after then-CEO Devin Wenig in August 2019 texted Steve Wymer, then its chief communications officer, that it was time to "take her down," referring to Ina Steiner, according to prosecutors and the Steiners.
EBay itself was criminally charged and agreed in 2024 to pay a $3 million fine.
Wenig, a former Thomson Reuters executive who stepped down as eBay's CEO in September 2019, was never ⁠charged. His lawyers have argued he had no knowledge or involvement in the harassment campaign and that his messages had been advocating for a public relations strategy to address Ina Steiner's reporting.
As part of the settlement, the Steiners' attorneys said Wenig will pay them $2 million and make a $1 million donation to a charity focused on ⁠protecting First Amendment rights in the name of Ina Steiner.

"No one should ever have been subjected to what the Steiners endured in 2019, and I’m saddened by it, especially because it occurred during my time as CEO of eBay," Wenig said in a statement on Tuesday. "This behavior is ⁠antithetical to everything I stand for and believe in."
Wendy Jones, who previously served as senior vice president of global operations, and Wymer will pay the couple $500,000 and $50,000, respectively, the plaintiffs say. Their lawyers did not respond to requests for comment.
The Steiners' lawyers said additional settlements were reached with other with all other eBay employees named in their lawsuit.

In 2010…157 banks had an average of 614 million in losses. In 2023…five banks had an average of 110 billion in losses. This seems to me like a staggering difference. Is this chart accurate?

America’s smallest bank closes after 106 years. This is the 3rd bank failure this year.

America’s Smallest Standalone Bank Closes After 106 Years
Jul 13, 2026, 9:00 AM GMT-4 | By Frank Gargano
Kentland, Indiana-based Kentland Federal Savings and Loan Association (FSLA) was shuttered by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) on Friday, July 10, marking both the third and the smallest bank failure of the year.
Following the OCC’s appointment of the FDIC as receiver, substantially all deposits and assets of the $3.73 million bank will be acquired by Kentland Bank (KFI Score: C), also based in Kentland, Indiana. At the time of its failure, Kentland FSLA reported $3.65 million in deposits, and according to an OCC press release, had “experienced substantial dissipation of assets and earnings due to unsafe and unsound practices.”
“The bank is critically undercapitalized, and there is no reasonable prospect that the bank will become adequately capitalized,” the OCC statement said.
In its March 2025 OCC Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) Performance Evaluation of Kentland FSLA, regulators noted that the bank’s size directly impacted its ability to compete against other banks for loans and deposits in its assessment area. Furthermore, the evaluation highlighted that the bank’s “ability to originate loans is challenged by a very high loan-to-deposit (LTD) ratio due to its small volume of deposits, and a low level of capital, resulting in a very low legal lending limit.”
Since 1Q 2025, Kentland FSLA maintained a KFI Score of E, correctly forecasting that the institution was likely to experience financial problems. Further evidence supporting the score includes a 2023 consent order from the OCC against the bank, wherein the bank was subject to supervisory restrictions and revisions to its board of directors, asset risk exposure, leverage ratios, and other operational areas.

Call report data collected by KBRA Financial Intelligence (KFI) show that over the last six quarters, Kentland FSLA posted losses in return on average assets and return on average equity. Uninsured deposits also hovered around 8% to 10% for the bank since 3Q 2025.
The previous bank failure this year occurred in May, when LaGrange, Georgia-based Community Bank & Trust - West Georgia was shuttered by the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance. At the end of fiscal year (FY) 2025, roughly 44% of the bank’s lending composition was concentrated within the commercial and industrial (C&I) sector. Over all four quarters, the bank charged off more than $5.8 million in C&I loans, pushing the net charge-off ratio to 7.79% in 4Q from 2.86% in 1Q.
Individual bank delinquency rates, charge-offs, and loan compositions can be viewed via KFI’s web app, as well as through our Excel add-in’s Loan Category and Delinquency Report template.
Over the last 16 years, KFI tracked and scored 383 banks before their closures. Of that total, 95% of banks that failed from 2010 through year-to-date (YTD) 2026 had a KFI Score of D or lower before closure by the FDIC, correctly identifying those institutions as being in irreparably poor financial condition, according to KBRA Financial Intelligence (KFI) data.

Looking at the data, there were 157 bank failures in 2010, the highest figure during the date range, followed by 51 failures in 2012, 24 failures in 2013, and 18 failures in 2014. Since then, bank failures have generally remained in the single-digit range.

Sources: KBRA Financial Intelligence (KFI), FDIC
When looking at the average total assets of failed banks per year, despite 157 failures in 2010, the average for the year was only $614.7 million. By comparison, the average for 2023 was $110.5 billion.
