Short term rental platform Airbnb will cancel any bookings made by people associated with a hate group in advance of the inauguration of Joe Biden next week, the company announced in a blog post on Monday.

The move comes as various companies, from payment processors to internet infrastructure firms, have cut ties with people connected to last week's Capitol riot or the President's own organizations. It also comes after Airbnb said it already cancelled reservations from domestic terrorist and violent hate group members in the lead up to the Capitol riot.
