Perhaps I'm just getting old, but 2016 was when New York State passed the law banning advertising whole homes on AirBnB for < 30 days, and I consider that relatively recent.

That’s a good point. I was thinking of NYC, which has had specific laws about short terms rentals (preventing ‘flophouses’ etc.) for as long as I can remember.
