So I guess the issue can be broken into parts:
1. Airbnb has every right to demand that its users get verified.
2. The way they implemented verification is suboptimal.
My read of the article/comments shows that most people disagree with #1.
- koide 13y agoOn the article it is said or at least implied, and in the email sent by the wife less ludicrous alternatives for verification are suggested. Edit: And there are always people, especially in the US, against any kind of ID request, but they are missing the point, in my opinion.
- omonra 13y agoI actually just did the verification for the sake of trying. It took me whole 30 seconds - I uploaded my driver license, which they automatically processed and accepted. So seems like this is a problem for a small % of users - while the majority who are not bothered just don't care enough to voice their opinion.
