Are you based in EU? If so, you should make a GDPR request to understand why you have been banned (ask ChatGPT or an equivalent to write one and for instructions in general to have a nice email that is based on GDPR).

Hey Jdietrich, I posted a while ago about being banned of Airbnb and you suggested to use GDPR to make a request to the DPO. It worked, the account is "unbanned". Many thanks for you suggestion and vive le GDPR (writing you here because my original post was flagged so no more comment can be added).

I had 2FA, with a phone number that didn't change, and I didn't receive any emails about bookings (but my email address associated to the account was not changed by a hacker), so I really don't understand what happened.

Do you use text messages for your 2FA setup? It's more work but phone-based 2FA can be circumvented without you receiving a message.

That's a good plan, Merci. I will ask to access the data to understand why I was banned and then appeal to the decision.

My account taken over while I had 2FA activated and I never received any emails about suspicious transactions besides the support. Doesn't seem right. But I will definitely change the password once I get it back.

No email where received besides the automatic ones from the customer service. I have 2FA also that makes me very confident my account was not hacked.

I'm glad you're confident your account was not hacked but that's not related to anything I said here about the lack of logical conclusion between emails on fraudulent activity leading to the account ban and the misbehaving ML.

You might get more visibility sticking to how you're unable to review this with airbnb get any details or correct the account. Probably a bit late for this post though.

What is "Lenses", is it the Google Lens?

Here's the docs[0].

It's basically a saved partial filter that you can use when searching. So you can e.g. say you only want to search reddit and have that saved as an easily-accessible button. But there's also predefined ones like "Forums" and "Academic", so that's the general idea.

The cool thing is you can enable a Lens when using the AI assistant with internet access, so its searches are also constrained to that Lens.

It's essentially search-space limitation, based on what you want to nudge the engine into responding with.

I.e. what power users used to do with Google, before it decided to ignore user intent

I don't know how you could ever do kagi small web with google.

That's not a simple hard filter but changes what types of results are more or less preferred.

Lenses are different from kagi small web. I encourage you to read the docs on both.

You are replying on someone explaining lenses which is something google had something similar in the past when they allowed power users to control search.

You can still use -site:{url} and related:{url} and after:{yyyy-mm-dd date}

But really, this is 2024. I shouldn't have to manually enumerate things in Google to get it to spit out serviceable results.

And the above nudges are pretty blunt force, compared to how much more it used to respect exact keywords.

The French regulator has launched its broadband map that states the speeds and ISPs available at the address level.
