You live in France, so the major tech powers don't have unregulated power. Under the GDPR, you have a right to access the personal data that AirBnB hold about you under Article 15. You have a right for errors to be rectified under Article 16. If a decision was made about you via any automated system, you have the right to human intervention under Article 22.

Direct your request to the Data Protection Officer at [e-mail]. If they do not respond to your request promptly and to your satisfaction, make a complaint to the CNIL.

That's a good plan, Merci. I will ask to access the data to understand why I was banned and then appeal to the decision.

Because that's reserved for the government? :)

It's the opposite in democratic countries such as France: while every other person or entity is free to do everything except what's explicitly regulated, the government only has those powers that are explicitly granted to them by laws and regulations.

The comment you replied to was referring to the EU regulating major tech powers through e.g. GDPR and DSA.
