FYI NYC did not recently pass a law about this. The law was existing, the city simply chose to start enforcing it.

- hn_throwaway_99 4y agoPerhaps I'm just getting old, but 2016 was when New York State passed the law banning advertising whole homes on AirBnB for < 30 days, and I consider that relatively recent. https://www.theverge.com/2016/10/21/13361536/airbnb-new-york-cuomo-bill-ban-short-term https://www.theverge.com/2016/10/21/13361536/airbnb-new-york...
- whiddershins 4y agoThat’s a good point. I was thinking of NYC, which has had specific laws about short terms rentals (preventing ‘flophouses’ etc.) for as long as I can remember.
