The headline is alarmist nonsense that is absolutely not supported by the facts presented. There are no numbers given for how many rentals are being listed on alternate sources. The numbers for listings marked as exempt on AirBNB certainly suggest that the ban is working exactly as intended. Yes, hotel prices will go up, obviously. That’s not something that anyone is surprised to hear. The rest is just anecdote presented as data. There’s no “chaos” here, just life being life.
