Which suggests they'll do the same with AirBnB

I don't know if I'm allowed list actual Air BnB adverts here but just put in Temple Bar and it's fairly obvious who doesn't own the apartments.

Also what person choses to stay in an apartment that says your not allowed press the intercom or interact with the neighbours.

Or the guy who manages numerous properties but isn't a company in "Dublin downtown".

Or that you'll be sharing a two bed apartment with other Air bNb guests in two other rooms? Are they staying in the bathroom or the kitchen?

relax carry on

Just to clear up what info Airbnb are obliged to report to Revenue, this is from Airbnb's own website.

Reporting Obligations:

Airbnb Ireland is legally required under Sections 888 and 890 of the Taxes Consolidation Act 1997 to provide certain information in relation to Irish host earnings annually to the Irish Revenue. Irish host earnings are:

All rental income earned by Irish resident hosts in respect of both Irish and foreign listings; and
All rental income earned by non-Irish resident hosts in respect of Irish listings.
The report is due by September every year and covers earnings for the previous year, i.e., the report due by September 2016 will cover Irish host earnings for the 2015 calendar year.

If you received Irish host earnings during the calendar year, Airbnb is required to provide Irish Revenue with the following information (which we obtain from the details in your Airbnb account):

Your first and last name
Address of your listing(s)
Your address as associated with your payout method
Amounts paid out in the reportable year, including cleaning fees
Date of your first booking during the reportable year, by listing
