"Spotify's fraud detection system is a very good thing for artists."
It isn't if anybody can remove an artist's songs just by click fraud/too much listening.
If they can detect the fraudulent plays then they should just not pay for those but should not remove the song.
- andybak 11y agoHow about if they can detect only some of the fraudulent plays? That changes the economics considerably. The reason the tax people charge punitive fines is because they know many tax dodges go undetected. Therefore they need the deterrent effect to make it uneconomical to try a scam. If detection was 100% - then a scam is impossible and punishment/deterrence is unnecessary.
