Airbnb Banning Hate Group Members
  • 3 years ago
Stephanie Keith/Getty Images Airbnb is banning all "hate group members" — including the Proud Boys — from its platform as a part of its newly announced "Capitol Safety Plan" ahead of the presidential inauguration. The company will be deleting accounts held by people who have been named by media or law enforcement as someone who committed a "violent criminal activity" at the historic Capitol siege. Guests in the Washington, DC area who are a part of hate groups or "planning violence" may face legal repercussions from Airbnb. Any platform members who have been cited by the media or law enforcement as Capitol siege attendees who partake in "violent criminal activity" or will also be banned, Airbnb said.
