Craigslist countersues eBay, escalating legal fight
Classified-advertising site Craigslist is countersuing eBay, accusing the online auction company of using its stake in Craigslist to misappropriate proprietary information and engage in false advertising, trademark infringement and a host of other wrongdoings.
The suit, filed in a San Francisco court, is a response to eBay's suit filed April 22 against Craigslist, which charged that Craigslist's board of directors secretly plotted to dilute eBay's 28.4 percent investment in the site after eBay launched a competing online classified-advertising service called Kijiji. EBay launched Kijiji overseas in 2005 and in the US last year.
