Brian Chesky's tweet is disingenuous. It's aggregating when people use the suffering of others as an opportunity for self-promotion, regardless of whether their actions ultimately help anyone (especially if they take more credit than they deserve).

Surprising fact, though! Couchsurfing.com is actually a for profit organization. Their business model, however, is not the same as AirBnB.
