eBay Canada will release information about Canadian PowerSellers to the Canada Revenue Agency, stating a Federal Appeals court ruled in the CRA's favor last week. The court has ordered eBay to provide information on PowerSellers from 2004 and 2005.
eBay Canada said it sent an email to all members whose information must be released to the CRA. "This is not the outcome that we wanted, and we strenuously object to being forced to release our members' information. Protecting our users' privacy is of the utmost importance." eBay also said the CRA intends to seek court orders for PowerSeller information for subsequent years.
