New York City Council today voted 42-5 on a law which will require short-term rental hosts to register and platforms like @Airbnb to only accept transactions on registered properties, effectively wiping out illegal hotels in homes, once the law goes into effect in 12 months. 1/7

Did you know, that the majority of @Airbnb listings in the U.S. are run by commercial operators, some with thousands of listings? These are hundreds of thousands of homes taken out of our housing markets in cities and towns everywhere. 1/8

There is so much in this story that shows how wrong @Airbnb is, how their business model depends on commercial hosts and scamlords, all to the detriment of tenants, housing and our communities. Great reporting @ricochet_en and @ZacharyKamel

Starting today, we are banning “party houses” and we are redoubling our efforts to combat unauthorized parties and get rid of abusive host and guest conduct, including conduct that leads to the terrible events we saw in Orinda. Here is what we are doing:

Consider how @Airbnb was able to get 100k homes for their #COVID19 response (most for a fee), and then 1M listings for their new desperate long-term rental facelift. All of those listings should have been on the long-term market all along. #letAirbnbFail protocol.com/airbnb-long-te…

Would love to know what data @Airbnb is sharing with the European Commission? Does it include how many homes are illegally rented; how many cities @Airbnb is helping hosts break the law; and how many families are being displaced because a host prefers to rent a home to tourists?
