He has a large and fanatical fanbase despite having trapped his pregnant girlfriend in a room and beating her so severely her eyes swelled shut (which he would later brag about)... while out on bail for breaking into someone's house, pistol whipping them, and robbing them.

Its also ripe for abuse; create dummy accounts that use their free stays to give a host credit, then the host sells those credits for real money.

On a certain movie tracker some invite selling scum would join via the signup process that used to exist on reddit, cheat a bunch of upload on popular torrents, convert that upload into bonus points, launder the points to their main account through a forum contest where they also gave away BP to innocent users, and buy invites to sell for real $ with the laundered BP. Similarly the dummy camping accounts could make sure to mix in some legit hosts as their free stays by picking hosts that may not be around/able to verify the dummy account stayed at their location (because it didn't).

What is this considering a major airport? CLT appears to be excluded but many smaller airports are not.

The hazard filters are also completely useless and in many cases wrong.

I feel like torrents and filesharing isn't going to need much fact checking. Unless you're perhaps talking about lawsuits or something where you might end up getting sued for your words.

torrentfreak.com is a current example of a long running blog about filesharing/torrent related news that constantly gets things wrong with no fact checking. Their articles are fine when they're about legal cases, new copyright laws, or actions of governments. But when they report on the goings on of non-mainstream streaming sites or private trackers they're almost completely fabricating their articles - believing the words of any "source" that sends them info without doing any sort of validation on it.
