A state Supreme Court judge has dismissed a lawsuit brought by Airbnb against New York City over what Airbnb called “extreme and oppressive” restrictions and a “de facto ban” on listings of less than 30 days [Airbnb, Inc v. NYC Mayor’s Office of Special Enf’t, August 2023]. Judge Arlene Bluth said the city had acted within its authority and that it was “inherently rational” for it to require hosts to register with a local agency in its attempt to crack down on listings operating illegally.
