I mean, it does say it gives Spotify "access [to] my data at any time". Messages are just data, after all...

  I feel they could have elaborated on 'data' a bit. To most people, saying 'messages' is more alarming than just saying 'data'.

    And by the same token, wall posts are data too, so there should be no need to specify that explicitly if that's the way data is being interpreted.

      That's exactly right. The fact that "wall posts" is in that list gives you a false notion of the granularity of the items in the list. One of those is not nearly as granular as the rest - if you assume that it is, like I did, you guess that "data" means "where you went to High School" or your "favorite movie" or some such, not "everything." Really deceptive.

  In context, "my data" means "the data referred to in the above three bullet points". Otherwise, this of the same type (though not magnitude) of thing as "Spotify may induct my firstborn into a satanic cult."
