I hope I'm not the only one here who thinks this is incredibly ANTI-entrepreneurial. I'll even go so far as to say this would be a really JERKY and EVIL thing to do.
Are you a hotel owner who has a grudge against the little guy who is trying to make some extra income?
What's your beef with Airbnb hosts?
And just because "every major site has such [sic] clause" doesn't mean you looking for the loophole is ethical.
As someone who hosts on Airbnb, the thought of this kind of action that would very likely harm MORE than those intended... it's evil.
I hope it falls flat.

Seems like a perfectly entrepreneurial response to the market opportunity created by overlap of the AirBnB vs. hotel conflict with the AirBnB vs. existing law conflict. > I'll even go so far as to say this would be a really JERKY and EVIL thing to do. Some people say that about the way that AirBnB and AirBnB hosts have openly flouted laws governing short-term rentals. Any disruptive entrepreneurial activity is going to "jerky and evil" from someone's perspective. And, maybe it is jerky and evil -- but that's not a category opposed to entrepreneurship. At best, its an orthogonal concern.
