"Airbnb Implements Global Ban on Indoor Security Cameras in Listings"
TL;DR
Airbnb is banning the use of indoor security cameras in rentals worldwide by the end of April, with the exception of doorbell cameras and noise-decibel monitors in common spaces, in an effort to prioritize privacy and simplify its security-camera policy. The change comes after reports of hidden cameras in rentals, and hosts found violating the new policy risk losing their Airbnb account.
