Results: Secret Recording in Airbnb
Published on 04/15/2019
A family recently discovered that a secret camera had been hidden inside a smoke detector in the Airbnb that they were renting. The family says they contacted Airbnb but the company did not remove the house from the listing. After more back and forth Airbnb removed the listing after 33 days since the family initially informed them about the problematic host. Airbnb issued a statement that "the safety and privacy of our community is our priority.”
