I assume this is more about not having any control over shipping explosives than having the right to repair.

eBay stepping on the necks of consumers, this is another nail in the coffin of right to repair

The Epstein class has decided that we’ll own nothing and be happy

It does seem dangerous to encourage the Dunning Kruger squad to fix their own airbags

The airbags in my car were part of the 2014 recall, and replaced as it was still thankfully under warranty.

I don’t see how this is a bad thing, eBay is just catching up with all the other online marketplaces. Even Alibaba has had a ban on airbags and airbag parts for over a decade. You need to have trusted supply-chains for safety-critical items that are expensive (and thus entice dangerous counterfeits) like airbags.

However, I think such changes should include legislation to mandate ease of access to replacement parts via a regulated industry body, otherwise consumers risk being impacted by monopoly practices or intentional product sunsetting.
