Cool. So ebay and amazon scope has to be preinstalled to obtain
priviledges.
No privileges here (needed nor wanted), as they are actually not
installed at all.
These are remote scopes [1], called from an Ubuntu web service [2]. The
fact that you can't remove the ones you don't want to see is simply
because there is nothing to remove from your phone.
The dash could probably have a way to hide remote scopes you don't want
to see from the installed scopes list, and I'm confident that if someone
would propose code for this [3][4], it would be considered.

I bet for the same reason as in Ubuntu desktop where we
badly need the amazon plugin to slow our system down.
I can understand the photo scope but as some Internet reviews also
confirm, ebay and amazon scope are pretty useless and I bet hardly
anyone would install them.
It's fine to dislike a scope, but on the desktop, the scopes are
loaded on-demand and don't affect memory or performance unless being
utilized.
Since the Amazon scope isn't a default scope, it doesn't actually run
unless you manually activate it.
In such a scenario, I don't wish to deny other features I find
useless. I simply use what benefits me and ignore what doesn't affect
me.
