I don't approve of Paypal se nding emails purporting to be from me as a product of my transactions on their website, since I neither wrote nor approved those emails - their systems did. Of course, whether my position on the matter is one that the DMARC spec is intended to support I will have to leave for the more qualified to decide.
Then you better cancel your Paypal account, since they've been sending out messages like that for a very long time. Maybe they won't in the future, but that doesn't change what you've already agreed to.
Yes, you approved that e-mail. Read the Paypal terms of service if you think otherwise.
But really, this is not a new argument. Domains with individual users have very different characteristics from those that are just used for announcements or transactions. There are a lot of entirely reasonable and legitimate ways that mail comes from individual users. As we've just seen, often the users themselves don't know what they are.
