　　“Judge Blocks City Law Requiring Detailed Monthly Airbnb Disclosures

　　介绍法官判决“禁止纽约市法令生效”（第 一段）--阐述判决结果与依据（第二、三段）--介绍涉事双方对初判的回应（第四、五段）--介绍判决的深远意义（第六段）。

　　Part 1 原文

　　I     A federal judge on Thursday blocked a recent New York City law intended to crack down on Airbnb and other online home-sharing sites that city officials say have essentially turned residential apartments into illegal hotels and have aggravated the city’s housing shortage.

　　II      The law, which was enacted last summer and was to go into effect next month, would have required the home-sharing services to disclose monthly to the city detailed information about tens of thousands of listings, and the identities and addresses of their hosts. Airbnb and another firm, HomeAway, sued in August, contending the law was unconstitutional.

　　III   The judge, Paul A. Engelmayer of United States District Court in Manhattan, granted Airbnb and HomeAway’s request for a preliminary injunction, stopping the law from going into effect. He wrote that the law violated the guarantee against illegal searches and seizures in the Fourth Amendment. “The city has not cited any decision suggesting that the governmental appropriation of private business records on such a scale qualifies as a reasonable search and seizure,” the judge wrote.

　　IV     Airbnb called the decision “a huge win for Airbnb and its users,” including “thousands of New Yorkers at risk of illegal surveillance.” The decision could aid homesharing services in their fight with other cities that have sought to regulate them, putting a limit on how much information local governments can demand.

　　V      The ruling also dealt a major blow to New York City’s political leaders, Mayor Bill de Blasio and the City Council speaker, Corey Johnson, who had championed the law as a way of combating rising rents. Mr. de Blasio said， “We have a huge city with a lot of Airbnb activity and a lot of concern in our neighborhoods and, unfortunately, a lot of examples of abuse. To put a strong data regimen in place made all the sense in the world.” Jacob Tugendrajch, a spokesman for Mr. Johnson, called the law a “vital protection against illegal hotels” and said the Council would continue “the fight for this common sense, data-driven law.”

　　VI      Judge Engelmayer, in his opinion, said that in the era before electronic data storage, an attempt by a municipality “to compel an entire industry monthly to copy and produce its records as to all local customers would have been unthinkable under the Fourth Amendment.” The judge said that upholding the law would invite other cities to make “similar demands on e-commerce companies” to routinely turn over broad-ranging customer records to investigative agencies. That, he added, could allow regulators “to troll these records for potential violations of law” even when there had been no basis to suspect a violation.

　　Part 2 长难句点评
