Airbnb Implements Global Ban on Indoor Security Cameras

Airbnb has announced a ban on all indoor security cameras at properties worldwide, simplifying its policy to disallow any indoor cameras regardless of their location or prior disclosure. The change, set to take effect on April 30, aims to provide greater clarity and privacy for guests, with doorbell cameras and noise decibel monitors still permitted but requiring host notification. Violations of the new indoor camera ban could lead to listing removal or host account termination, and the decision was made in consultation with guests, hosts, and privacy experts.
