| Two one-time eBay executives were sentenced to federal prison for harassing a couple they believed were criticizing their online marketplace. |
| James Baugh, 47, was sentenced in U.S. District Court to 57 months in federal prison, two years of supervision after he is released, and a $40,000 fine. Meanwhile, David Harville, 50, received a two-year sentence, two years of supervised release and a $20,000 fine. |
| Baugh, who was eBay's security chief and Harville, who was director of global resiliency, pleaded guilty several months ago to harassing Ina and David Steiner, who ran the Ecommercebytes website. Baugh and others who worked for him sent the couple threatening messages, and even mailed a bloody pig's mask to their home. |

| The different outcomes cast a spotlight on how shifting goals, priorities and political alliances can make the difference between a policy stalling or moving forward. |
