You mention that PayPal was bought by eBay (in 2002) but not that it was spun off again in 2015. They’re separate companies. If anything, Venmo is a competitor of PayPal.

PayPal… owns Venmo?

Again, you are weird to spend energy defending semantics around this corporation… are you okay, bud? Temporarily embarrassed millionaire?

Correcting misinformation isn’t defense of the entities involved. You can hate eBay (or any entity) and correct misinformation about them. There’s no conflict there.
