Who is doing the banning? ebay can't can books, and hasn't. The publisher can't ban books, and hasn't. The rights holder can't ban books, and hasn't. Who is doing the banning?

eBay can ban sales of books on its platform, and has done so.
The copyright holder / publisher can prevent any publication of books it holds copyright to, and has done so.
Distributors of books, like Amazon, can stop selling books they disagree with, and have now starting doing that too.
So the answer to your question is: all the above.
