I don't see how anything has been adapted here. This isn't Uber getting some different deal versus existing taxi companies. Airbnb always owed hotel tax, and now they are getting around to collecting it. They played the "oh, our users will pay taxes on their own" card, which obviously did not actually happen if this change is expected to increase SF revenue by $11mm a year. Airbnb was also always subject to the residency laws of the places it operated in, but apparently didn't know that if you let someone book a place for 30 days in California they establish residency and cannot easily be gotten rid of. Despite that being sort of their entire business -- to be the knowledgable middleman that facilitates a housing rental between two parties that don't do this for a living.
