I think that eBay and PayPal are probably the beginning of a wave of mega deals of flaccid digital businesses that can be revived with the blue chew of capital and the right operator... folks that are AI native are looking at first generation digital native businesses that have become mature and old and stale and aren't run by the founders anymore... there's a couple dozen of them.
