The one aspect of this story that has me asking questions and scratching my head is: why were the charges dropped only to be revived? Who made the call for the case to be reinstated? Airbnb is a great service, I don't see why local Governments like New York are so against the idea. I can see why personal driver services like Uber are somewhat under scrutiny, but the only person who has something to lose is the owner of the property being rented out on Airbnb, not the person staying nor the city the property resides in. The whole situation reeks of lobbyist propaganda and cash.
