>They managed to solve this exact problem you're complaining about via the rating system and guests being attached to their real identity

I think you got it all wrong. This is not a pitch for AirBnB. If anything, the company is creating the problem, not solving it.

>As for your tight local control, fuck that. No, you shouldn't get to decide exactly what happens in your neighborhood just because you got there first.

You're taking what OP wrote out of context and molding it to fit your simplistic thinking. There are laws to protect residential neighborhoods for a reason, and they certainly are not based on "who got here first" rule.
