This is a very interesting and convincing theory. The same could be said for AirBnB.
So the question is, what other locally-regulated industries are ripe for disruption?

- J-dawg 11y agoI've discussed that very thing on HN before. Someone replied with "it's very hard to disrupt something that people don't do often". I think there's a lot of truth in this. Real estate sales seems to be pointlessly inefficient and overpriced, but it's something that people do a handful of times in their entire life, and they're willing to pay to have their hand held.
