Play with snakes, get bitten.

AirBnb started out as a company that basically fostered and encouraged illegal, unregulated short term rentals. Many of the hosts were breaking various ordnances and bylaws to rent you their home.

There is also a huge societal cost in terms of increases rents and reduced permanent housing supply because of AirBnb.

So if those type of people at that company screw you over, don’t be surprised.
