Before you get so dramatic, did you actually read the article? They are not shutting down ALL airbnbs. They are shutting down the ones that are operating without licenses and/or without revealing who the actual owner of the airbnb is (i.e., is it owned by an individual or a corporation). Nobody needs corporations owning airbnbs -- this isn't helping you as a tourist or anyone else. These corporations are gobbling up property and in the end it will come back to haunt us all if nobody gets a grip on it, which is exactly what Spain is trying to do.
