A read-only Airbnb sweep that flags hidden cameras and trackers

RazeDen@razeden0

19 devices on my Airbnb room Wi-Fi. Claude Code found the 1 that wasn't fine.

Last month I reverse engineered apps. This month I reverse engineer Airbnb rooms.

One prompt, 7 steps, read only the whole way:

Wi-Fi: lists every device on the network, finds the maker by MAC and flags anything open on camera ports like 554

Behavior: a "smoke detector" that calls itself IPC-CAM on the network is not a smoke detector - devices tell on themselves

Bluetooth: logs every tracker for 10 minutes, then again in the hallway - an AirTag that walks out with me is in my bag

My phone: Amnesty's free MVT tool checks it for known stalkerware

Host's app: if they make me install a check-in app, REA opens it and lists every tracker and permission inside

Lenses: a flashlight sweep of everything that faces the bed and the shower

Report: every finding marked fact, guess or unknown - with proof for each one: MAC, port or file

Then I break it on purpose. I hide my own AirTag in the room and run it again. If it misses mine, I don't trust the green.

It never logs into anything, never changes a setting, and tells me what it can't see - like a camera on its own SIM card.

20 minutes of checks beats 7 nights of wondering.

I'll post the full case file on my profile soon. Save this post for your next trip and stay safe.
