How to STOP PayPal from consistent breaking and breaching privacy.


I’ve been using paypal to make purchases on parts mainly and the rest of business is mainly SELLING. One day I wasn’t able to purchase Sansui SR1080 turntable platter for $22 from eBay with red message to address issue with paypal.
After nearly 100 min on hold, a guy with Philippine accent as usually picks up phone and tries to ’resolve’ issue with smile asking me to provide personal information.
I advised FAST Philippino dude to SLOW DOWN and answer me what caused this problem. I learned that my previous purchases was averaging $5...6 and next purchase I tried to use $22 did not go through.
I explained that I’m NOT going to provide my personal information EVERY time I’d like to purchase goods in excess of $7 and unloaded my concerns LOUD to make CLEAR understanding and got my account back working.
If you’re doing business using paypal -- have few to several accounts linked to prepaid bank accounts only!

I am proficient with algorithms and applied maths.
The algorithm itself is breach of privacy, 4th Amendment and shouldn’t be in place !

Folks like me (will SHOUT, CONFRONT and REPELL, but there are sheeps that will just provide PI on every so occasion with absolute trust.
You are perfect example of sheep accepting that these so called algorithms normal. To me frequent instances of identity check do look suspicious, unnecessary AND in conflict with basic laws

Just seems to me that if you use an electronic payment method, and I'd include credit cards in that, it is part of the package. As to being a sheep, I can find other things to worry about. 
@czarivey .
Please, don't shout at the messenger. They are just the low level guys who are probably getting paid less than US minimum wage. That they can speak English, as well as their native language should be an indication of how much they want to work.
As far as you problem with paypal goes, I would contact Ebay directly as they are pretty much one in the same. When I contact Ebay customer service I get a US agent and he/she is usually very helpful trying to correct the problem.

gdnrbob, 
Whether or not customer service messenger or agent is or not from US it STILL way too much of an issue that increases checks on personal information overly-over-excessive and exposes that information to substantially larger array of agents you're exposed to apparently not only from USA.
The global picture of this mess ain't so pretty at all and does ring bell REGARDLESS of who picks up the phone, because just like in NY Lottery -- "Hey! You never know!" 
So my first reaction was "You REALLY want to get my personal info for $22 transaction??" and the agent thought that I was joking so I had to EMPHASIZE with higher voice volume to make myself CLEAR regardless where this call was from and regardless of an accent.
