AirBnB getting in on the action:

White supremacists using Airbnb will be banned from making reservations and hiring out flats and permanently booted out from the platform, Airbnb’s co-founder said on Tuesday.
On the back of violence sparked by extremists in the US, Airbnb co-founder Nathan Blecharczyk said the company cancelled reservations made by some users after it had become aware of a gathering of white supremacists in Charlottesville - the largest in decades.
Speaking to Bloomberg TV, he said the “hate displayed this week has been shocking”.
“We make every one of our users sign a pledge when they sign up that they will not discriminate and exhibit hatred”, he said. “Whenever we become aware of such examples they are permanently banned from platform.”
I'm sure large corporations seeking to massage certain views and stances out of the populace can't go wrong.
