Your listing is selling an account for Facebook, which is not permitted as most social networking companies have limitations in their terms of service that restrict the artificial boosting of another member’s following or popularity, or the sale of accounts with established followings,”“Given that, eBay as a company has decided not to allow listings that would facilitate or promote this type of activity. While we appreciate that you have chosen to utilize our site, we must ask that you please not relist this type of service.”
A Facebook user found out just how valuable personal data can be when he auctioned off his social media history on eBay this week. The bid started at 99 cents and climbed to nearly $400 before it was shut down by the e-commerce site a day later.

Well, we probably should care about the seeming fact that businesses and other entities have more rights to our data than we do as individuals.
And what would that point be? Other than the attention it got him?
What does "liking attention" have to do with this thread? If he likes to get attention, does that devalue the point he made in trying to auction off his personal data?

On the contrary. There was a claim that the MSM would not cover this. Proven false.
On the contrary. I demonstrated that the subject is a publicity hound. Or whore, if you wish.
