She didn’t start eBay.

Yes it grew when she was there. Whether she is responsible for much of that growth is debatable.

These days sellers and buyers are fleeing eBay.

I'm a long time eBay user and she's mostly killed the dream that was once eBay by endless rules and fees that all run in eBay's/Paypal's favor, not the customers.

No, she just helped take it public for them.

Yeah, and GE grew while Jack Welch was CEO. I suppose you'll say it's debatable if he was responsible for that growth, too. She came onboard when ebay was a disorganized blip on the internet and built it into a company that does $7.6 billion in business. Arguable the largest, most profitable all-internet company going. And you don't think any of that was due to her?
