This experience with #airbnb support to defend our right to leave a review has been so bad so far it has me really thinking about the moral role of powerful tech platforms and how much oversight they need.
My review for a poor Airbnb experience has been removed because of "internal policies and more we cannot divulge" (quote from customer services). This was after I was accused of breaking GDPR without including any personal data! @AirbnbHelp does this sound right?

Tragic. For context, 9/11 had 3000 losses and we know the US took that seriously.
Today, we mark another grim and heartbreaking milestone in this pandemic: over 700,000 Americans lost. As we acknowledge the tragic scale of this death toll, we must remember each person and the life they lived.
Why does this work me? Oh yes, I'm feeling patronised by the idea that someone else in a pretty dress with none of our problems should somehow make things lovely. Lipstick on a pig??
