New York CNN —Airbnb is banning the use of indoor security cameras in listings globally, the short-term rental platform announced Monday.
Indoor security cameras, however, were never allowed in spaces like sleeping areas and bathrooms.
Hosts who do currently have indoor security cameras have until April 30 to remove them.
Outdoor security cameras, such as doorbell cameras, will continue to be permitted in Airbnb.
The use of indoor security cameras in Airbnb listings has long drawn frustration from travelers using the platform.
