To clarify, you don't think that any city should regulate people selling short term stays in their private residence, in any way?

- yummyfajitas 10y agoI think if they do regulate it, they should have a good reason for it. All the reasons cited in this thread seem pretty bad. I say they are bad because when you apply the same reasons to regulating anything other than AirBnB, suddenly they don't seem like good reasons at all.
