When it comes to Airbnb - neighbours who now live next to a hotel room, communities that are now full of transitory people and tourists rather than stable long term residents, landlords who had no-subletting clauses in their contracts.
That last one is the thing that makes me most surprised that Airbnb has so many libertarian supporters. It's the biggest attack on basic property rights and contracts in quite a while. Personally I don't have much sympathy for landlords, but I do think that if we are going to regulate to no longer allow such clauses in contracts it has to be applied universally, not just for people using Airbnb.
