Airbnb is banning indoor security cameras from all the properties it lists globally as part of the homestay marketplace firm’s effort to prioritize customers’ privacy, the company announced in a March 11 statement.
Officials noted that Airbnb had historically allowed indoor security cameras to be used in common areas of properties listed on the site, such as in the hallways and living rooms of properties, provided they were clearly disclosed on the listings page before booking and were not placed in areas such as bedrooms and bathrooms.
