I'm guessing this has nothing to do with prudishness and everything to do with people putting their places and Airbnb and finding out porn was shot at their place and it's now a hazmat site.
The only angle I can understand is having your apartment in a porn movie, which is unacceptable because you rent it out for people to stay in, not draw commercial profit from it through film production. But calling a porn shoot a "hazmat site"? Nope, don't agree here at all.
While this was disturbing at first, the 'ick' feeling quickly went away and we could see the funny side of it.
What really hurt was the renter skipped out leaving two months' unpaid rent, plus sky high heating bills (needed to keep the apartment warm enough for naked actors, apparently...)
P.S. I thought about including the link to the online trailer. But I'd probably end up banned. It's definitely NSFW.
Hell, a family with three kids and a gallon of ice cream seems more likely to create an obscene mess than all but the most avant garde of porn (though I don't have kids and have never made a porn, so this is speculation)
I'd be pretty pissed off if people rented my place for any business purposes under the guise of tourists.

I could see a point if they were banning accounts that use rented paces for commercial activity, assuming it were against the rules. But banning people for work they do is going a big too far. Although not unexpected from SV's "world-changing" hucksters.
That is a ridiculous statement. What about "regular" couples having sex in an AirBnB? Or only pornstars have sex?
Porn happens, with or without the camera. Its called sex.
A lot of us have it at AirBnB precisely because thats the point.
b)and if a residence is used for porn that the host and Airbnb gets a share of revenue - separate contract.
