I’m not saying he’s a bad person, I don’t know the guy. In my time of living in SF (9 years till recently), his name has come up outside of the startup context multiple times, with less glowing reviews and the article. While Airbnb benefited from his business and investor wisdom, outside of business, the outcomes he was able to sway is not as clear cut as being an overall good. I’m just presenting other articles about him since HN seemed interested about this topic.
