SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Airbnb has sued the city of San Francisco over a new law requiring short-term rental companies to remove unregistered hosts from their websites. The San Francisco Chronicle reports (http://bit.ly/292gAfu) the company's suit filed Monday in the U.S. District Court of Northern California seeks an injunction to suspend the law, which is set to take effect July 27. San Francisco's new short-term-rental law would make companies like Airbnb, HomeAway/VRBO and FlipKey liable for big fines and criminal penalties if they showcase listings that lack the city's required registration number. The company argues the rules run afoul of federal law, including the Stored Communications Act of 1986, which creates privacy protections for communications held by third-party Internet service providers.Read more on NewsOK.com

  • 8 new Denver ice cream shops and offerings for 2024
    Denver Post, Wednesday - 06/12/2024 - 08:00 AM

So too, do ice cream shops and trends, which can be built up into magnificent displays only to melt in the heat, dripping down your wrist into a puddle on the ground. These days, it’s rich and small-batch ice creams with a dizzying array of flavors and toppings that attract the most attention — something you can read about in our list of 8 ice cream shops worth screaming about this summer — and although Denver has lost a few cold-treat purveyors, like Ice Cream Riot, many more have newly opened or added locations or offerings.
