Rooted in fact-based, transparent reporting, Newsy is an award-winning opinion-free network owned by the E.W. Scripps Company that is relentlessly focused on “the why” of every story and seeks to enable a more intimate and immersive understanding of the issues that matter.
The decision comes after several guests found hidden cameras in the properties they rented and lodged complaints.
The San Francisco-based rental app says its new policy will take effect on April 30 for all interior cameras “regardless of their location, purpose or prior disclosure.”“Our goal was to create new, clear rules that provide our community with greater clarity about what to expect on Airbnb.
The company says that noise monitors, outdoor and doorbell cameras are still okay in Airbnbs, but the hosts must disclose where they are before renting their homes and can not use them indoors or in private areas. Meanwhile, noise monitors are allowed in shared spaces but can't record or transmit sound.
Although Airbnb says that only a small number of listings will be affected since most haven't reported having these cameras, they warn that hosts who break the new rules will face investigation and potential removal of their listing or account.Trending stories at Scrippsnews.com
