It’s just a shitpost. Please, let’s all try to remain clam.

Are you implying that Spotify used user data to generate these advertisements, rather than just paying the marketing firm that definitely came up with this idea?
Also, way to add an extra layer to the promotion.

I’d rather not have ads in the shit post community

I mean if it was a brand new account posting just things like this, sure, I would agree. In this case I recognize OP and give them the benefit of the doubt they aren’t an undercover Shitify agent here to advertise on the shitpost community. Not everything has to be black and white.

Not hard to karma farm and use an account for corporate influence. ThePicardManuever just posted a taco bell ad today.

Looks like an anti-Spotify ad to me. Why should Spotify employees read the names of people’s playlists?
Edit: oh, they’re probably public ones. Still, technically profiting off people’s content, which they likely agreed to in ToS.

That seems like something that could be easily taken just from the api, I feel like if it’s data anyone can get for free, they are fine to use it in ads.

I mean, the users probably didn’t read the ToS but lots of social media and similar have these rules. I feel they should ask for every instance they use individual data for advertising their platform anyway even if the user clicked “Agree” when signing up. ToSDR calls this “You sign away moral rights”.

Do you think Spotify is paying me or something? For fuck’s sake. I thought it was funny. If you don’t like it, move on.

Obviously a corporate shill. He never outright said he wasn’t being payed.

Or for that matter, paid.
