Yes, it's a good thing we've solved all the crimes with actual victims so we can move on to regulating behavior between consenting adults.


I'm guessing the neighbors of these short term rental properties didn't consent to Airbnb's customers rezoning their neighborhoods for them.


I'm guessing that since the person in the article was informed by the police and not her neighbors, that no one had any clue.


How does that conclusion make even the smallest bit of sense to you?


The point is that any inconvenience to neighbours from such a 'brothel' is hypothetical - nobody even noticed that it was there, so they definitely weren't harmed in any way.


There isn't anywhere near enough information to ascertain whether neighbors noticed.

I have no idea who my neighbors are. If they weren't actually here, in the building, I'd have no way to contact them whatsoever. That doesn't mean I don't notice Airbnb tenants.
