OK, then by that rationale every time I stay at a normal hotel I'm "sharing" it with the other guests who have stayed there before? It's a misuse of the word, plain and simple, popularized by well-financed corporations that want to be seen as altruistic populist movements as they skirt the current laws/regulations. I get that there's a real distinction between these new companies that facilitate peer-to-peer transactions. But I'd much prefer a term like "peer economy" than "sharing".
