Lobbyists have to be crapping themselves. They depend on regulated company -> lobbyist -> Congress -> regulatory agency. Now the CEOs are just being put directly in charge of personnel of their own agency

But to do this you're going to be able to screen out freaks pretty easily
If they don't give you their name and number, You can meet them in a neutral place You can do internet searches on who they are, block if not safe.
I've gotten people to translate for me for a surgery before this way, I've found tour guides and places to sleep all of which were not sexual.
I'm not saying it's perfect, but if you're looking for a way to boycott Airbnb this is one

in reply to Roj π³οΈβπ • • •I mean, anyone who is going to be doing dating apps has a level of this risk regardless, and I would assume that the risk could be mitigated by looking for women rather than men.
It is more of a boarding situation than Airbnb, and I grant that w/my white male privilege, it is fewer steps, I just have several different things that I do that aren't conventional because for those things aren't available to someone as poor as I am
The unconventional can be used for boycotts, too

Iβm doing it because I donβt want to help someone who supports blatant fascism. Thatβs more clear cut to me.

in reply to Roj π³οΈβπ • • •I was already shunning #Airbnb for their outrageous and disingenuous response to #overtourism in #shorttermrentals and resulting housing crises in many cities and islands around the world - "the local governments should just build more housing". As if Airbnb wouldn't soak up any of the new housing, too. Any such new housing paid by local taxpayers, would be located far from peoples' work & take years to build. Soβ¦ great solution!β¦. β¦Wankers!

Another "privatise profits and public costs"

obama.org/programs/voyager-schβ¦
It's dubious where many Fortune 500 CEOs stand with regard to Trump, so Chesky's record in standing against him is especially notable. Given that, it might be worth pressuring him to speak out against, if not buy out, Gebbia's actions than to simply boycott Airbnb.

Unknown parent • • •@LaNaehForaday Amazing! Thank you for calling. I recommend having a backup place for listing, like VRBO.
For what itβs worth I donβt know about the companyβs position. The cofounder is on the board of directors and has a large portion of the company ownership (shares). So this is why I took action.
