As an Airbnb owner, can you press charges if you have not been previously informed by the tenant that they'll be filming and smashing 101 weiners in your property? (www.newsweek.com)

Then again, is it illegal to film yourself in privacy (only talking about AirBnB renting here, the rest is a horror story that has nothing to do with renting an apartment).

Sounds like USA religious prudism / click bait.

Edit: the number of airbnb bootlickers...

I believe a business is supposed to get permission from the Airbnb host for any commercial filming. Whether it's a reality show, a TV commercial, or adult entertainment.

In London or the USA (or elsewhere)?

Let's say UK, since it was filmed there for example. I mean surely the Airbnb owners have a good case right?

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 9 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Against what exactly, fucking and filming?

I mean if they destroyed something, sure, but having sex? The mattress in a popular AirBnB have probably seen more jizz&dicks than than that.

It's likely against policy for having parties, and if they're filming for commercial purposes, there's likely a policy against commercial use of the property. The stay is intended for the amount of people that were indicated when reserving the place.

Suing would likely be mainly for cleaning costs, and perhaps replacing some items? Not sure how much compensation they would get beyond that.

Using a private property for commercial use, and then saying it can't be used for commercial use? I'd find that hard to believe.

[–] _LordMcNuggets_@feddit.org 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Thanks, yes - this is what I was looking for. Just thinking from a Airbnb renter perspective, such a stunt would drop the value of the property + service fees such as changing the mattresses etc.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 7 points 4 weeks ago

Because of the scale of it I guess, but people rent AirBnBs and fuck all the time, so hard to make that illegal I think.

Also, maybe the value would go up, who knows, but if it did, nobody would claim the actress should have a cut right?

The article says nothing whatsoever about this topic.
