I don't believe this is Airbnb's fault, BUT since it has happened and gotten big they better get their act together and fix it somehow. Renting out short term is a good business IF someone is around the entire time to watch over guests. There should really be a host present the entire time for the guests. Otherwise there is an increased risk of bad things to happen. Potential hosts needs to be aware of all the risks (even if small chance) and be prepared to accept it if they're not vigilant. It's much easier than running a business, but it could really bite you on the ass if you don't run it as a real business.
