Airbnb bans use of indoor security cameras amid privacy concerns

Airbnb has banned the use of indoor security cameras at its properties worldwide amid privacy concerns.

The short-term rental platform said on Monday it had made the decision as part of its efforts to simplify its policy on security cameras and “prioritise the privacy of our community”.

Airbnb, which has its headquarters in San Francisco, had until now allowed security cameras in common areas such as living rooms provided they were disclosed on listings and clearly visible.
