AirBnB – who let the dogs out…?
Who let the dogs out and what else must happen, that people start to understand, that AirBnB is not about „a social website that connects people who have space to spare with those who are looking for a place to stay“ anymore?
The company is a full-fledged hospitality business and in direct competition with the hotel industry, so they should meet the same requirements and pay the fees, taxes, insurances, etc… every hotel in the world has too.
Don’t get me wrong, it is not about protecting an industry from the disruptive innovation, it is more about equal rights, because I think, at least everybody should have the same requirements in doing his business.
