An Airbnb host abruptly canceled a family's vacation house when asked about security cameras

I think they dodged a bullet here. Questions about where cameras are, and what they record are simple and painless to answer, unless you’re up to something creepy.

I personally would never rent a place that had internal security cameras. When I rent, what I expect is what the contract offers: peaceful enjoyment of the premises in return for money. Having a security camera recording me at all times is no different than having a creepy stranger in the room staring at me and taking notes at all times. That’s the absolute opposite of peaceful enjoyment.
