When will Airbnb start supplying income information to tax authorities?

[David1191]

I declare my Airbnb income to the tax authority, but I know that other hosts do not, which weakens our community, encourages tax-dodging behavior, and angers activists who want Airbnb to shut down.

When will Airbnb start complying with tax laws in the same way as all the other "sources of income" that provide income information to governments?

(Oh, and such information would ALSO shut down many underground hotels that run multiple locations on Airbnb but lack proper licenses, etc.)

They do in the US, presumably when the Dutch authorities require booking services to do so.

Oh, so they issue 1099s to everyone who books more than $600?
