If it were on a national hotel chain then maybe; but I think with something like that part of the appeal is the freedom it represents. No metal and bolts, just an old tire or piece of wood strapped around a tree branch. I don't think it's reaonable at all to assume it would be inspected. (if you're looking for that kind of security I don't think you'd use airbnb) I think it's just a tragic accident, yes it could have been prevented, but what accident couldn't be? There are risks everywhere, and trying to remove them all isn't possible or efficient. We go after the low hanging fruit because it saves more lives. If this were carbon monoxide poisoning or a fire (with no smoke detector) I'd be with you blaming the property owners - but this wasn't something they should/could have prevented.
