- swohns 14y agoAirBNB did some amazing image work recently, they got the word about this out across NYC incredibly quickly and the Mayor's office has been touting it. It looks like they did indeed make an unregulated landlord exemption, but they have clearly not openly claimed they have done so. This is in line with the recent Uber moves in the city too, kudos to Bloomberg and Rachel Sterne for doing excellent work with the tech community to heal the city!
- Evbn 14y agoHow does this affect NYC's position on unregukated landlording? Is there a crisis exemption?
