The social consequences of cars was "white flight" and decimation of inner cities. Super bad. But hardly a reason to avoid cars. The real cause was lack of public transportation to suburbs which is a failure of policy.
Same with airbnb, blame lawmakers for failure in policy and try to change that. Avoiding the technology/system won't change the supply/demand economics.
