Item removed due to a policy violation

It seems the issue concerns an item being removed from a platform, triggering a response from sardonicus001 to etb321, indicating an ongoing communication without further details.
Last night I received an email from eBay telling me it had removed a listing because it didn't follow their Protecting Minors policy. I list CDs, records, DVDs and sometimes books but I would never and have never listed an item which I suspected would violate this policy. Unfortunately eBay hasn't told me what the name of the item is so I have no way of identifying it. All of my active listings are still active. I havem't been able to work out how to query the removal with eBay. It does say, however:
"Please understand that you've listed Materials (photos, books, etc.) by David Hamilton. Sally Mann,Will McBride, Graham Ovenden, Jacques Bourboulon and Jock Sturges which is not allowed on eBay site."
Who are these people? What can I do?

OP1 year agoI managed to speak to a human at eBay. It turned out that the offending item was a CD, the soundtrackto a movie called Libido which was made by a person who was famous for his photos of young girls and who had been accused of rape. How was I to know?
