Tell HN: eBay doesn't allow changing countryhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44140192On 2025-05-30, I received an email from eBay saying "Peter, are you still using your account?"I got a security code by email, and successfully spoke to a nice man from Florida on the phone.I noticed that my address has changed, because my parents sold their house in France and moved to New Zealand. So I updated my address as well.On 2025-05-31, I received another email from suspension@ebay.com saying "MC092 FPA NOTICE: eBay Registration Suspension - User Agreement - Abusing eBay - peterburk"The first thing I did when I turned 18 years old was to open accounts on eBay and PayPal using my old iBook G3 (before even going downstairs to open birthday presents).And now all my 88 positive reviews are for nought, because eBay blocked me.If anybody reads this, please let me know an email address in eBay so I can contact a real human to verify that my account is real.This is not AI, this is not a drill, this is the real world and life is just a little complicated.May 30, 2025 9:49 PM

Why Isn't There a One-Pager for Every Politician's Performance?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43976018Just dumping a thought here — I’d love to see a world where we can objectively evaluate politicians based on their goals, promises, and actions. We’re way past the point of relying on biased news outlets or viral social media clips to form opinions. With today’s tech and LLMs, we should be able to track political figures and hold them accountable.As someone with a data engineering background, I imagine a simple one-pager dashboard for any politician or political group — showing what topics they focus on and how they’re actually performing. The public deserves that. Right now, most people make emotional decisions based on what they hear in the news or see online. That’s not a healthy trajectory.May 13, 2025 6:20 PM
