The excuse is that's obviously where the majority of their revenue comes from. Why else would they fight so hard and risk being banned entirely?

- jgalt212 10y agoagree. 80/20 rule in effect here. no different than the power sellers on Ebay who drive the lion's share of transactions.
- CodeWriter23 10y agoSo it's ok to break the law if your primary source of income is derived from illegal activity?
- x0x0 10y agoI'm speculating about why they did it. I think that AirBNB is horrific for housing constrained cities.
- nojvek 10y agoI used to be a big fan of airbnb when it got started in the spirit to support YC companies. Over the last couple of years all my experiences have been crap. I've lost about $1000 in non refundable fees because I've tried to cancel hosts who had almost unlivable places. The review system is gamed and the whole things feels like a giant scam now. I never use it anymore and back to reliable hotel chains that guarantee some sort of quality.
