eBay refuses to tell man why it suspended his new account

Quick pass on the full song there:

We data-mined your life
There’s no turning back
Even while offline
We will find you

Amplify your worst behaviour
No appeals to a better nature
Algorithms really rule the world

It’s it’s own desgin
It’s got no remorse
No need to decide
It makes sure there’s

No more freedom, so no pressure
Permabans that last forever
Algorithms really rule the world

Off the grid, where the code won’t find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do, it’ll be right behind you

Too bad, you almost made it
So sad, no way to evade it
Algorithms really rule the world

[Instrumental interlude]

It’s a black-box decision
Married to tunnel vision
Algorithms really rule the –
Know that you can never, never, never delete it
Got warned, but didn’t believe it
Algorithms really rule the world
No more freedom, so no pressure
Permabans that last forever
Algorithms really rule the world.
