Wi-Fi Scanning Apps Can Help Uncover Hidden Cameras; Airbnb Bans Indoor Cams Starting April 30th

Apps like Network Analyzer and Fing can scan a Wi-Fi network to reveal hidden cameras that are connected. Fing provides very detailed device descriptions.
-
Fing's paid tier includes a feature to specifically look for hidden cameras like motion sensors or baby monitors.
-
These apps aren't 100% reliable but can help uncover cameras you didn't know about.

Airbnb is banning indoor cameras in listings starting April 30th. Outdoor cameras must be disclosed.
-
Devices like decibel monitors are still allowed to ensure guests aren't violating rules. But they cannot record conversations.
