I wonder if anything will be done.
If they get a cut of the booking cost, then they have no incentive to dissuade listing creators from doing whatever the fuck they can to get renters to pull out the credit card.
They already have your money by the time you arrive at your rental and realize the listing was complete horseshit. Most people either can't or won't change their planned accomodations that late in their trip.
So you stay in your falsely advertised hovel and complain to the booking company afterward, who says, "we don't create the listings, inaccuracies in them aren't our fault."
Nothing will change until the problem is pervasive enough that bookings drop as a result AND the reduced revenue is correctly attributed to it by shareholders AND they pressure the C-suite to implement policy changes accordingly.
