Quote
Some landlords are taking advantage of the coronavirus outbreak, soliciting sexual favors in lieu of rent payments from economically vulnerable tenants, according to advocates.

Khara Jabola-Carolus, executive director of the Hawaii State Commission on the Status of Women, said her office has received more reports of landlords sexually harassing their tenants in the last two weeks than it had in the two years since she started working there, including cases of landlords offering to move in with tenants and sending sexually explicit photos to them after they communicated concerns about paying April rent.

While the number of cases wasn't necessarily astronomical — the commission received 10 reports about nine landlords — Jabola-Carolus said they were especially notable given such cases go "vastly underreported."

"Landlord coercion has always been a reality, but we've never seen anything like this," Jabola-Carolus said.
eight of the reports were connected to something called "The Bire" with ties to "Dutch Directness"

I knew we couldn't trust the Dutch!

During a pandemic, a 308 sqft studio in an Airbnb-infested condo in Toronto (redundant) was just put on sale for $530,000.

The current owner must’ve been on a six-week meditation retreat.

Not a #boycott person and extricating yourself from everything that could possibly add to systematic barbarism is impossible but it would be so easy for GitHub to say "sorry, your use of our software violates our terms of service". The size of the contract is a drop in the bucket compared to their annual revenue.

Ya do that to a very politicized government department - that won't be a major legal or PR problem. This isn't Apple that can take on the Feds because they have more money and their core business depends on them doing it.

This will be a complicated recovery for Airbnb.

People bought homes then rent them on Airbnb. Now can�t make mortgage payments and so put homes into rental market at half the price.

Cities see new rental inventory and housing costs go down.
