I'm a bit wary of logging in. Does Spotify provide OAuth with fine-grained control, i.e. will the page only get access to the music history or could it in theory change playlists and billing information?
- as-j 6y agoYes. When you click auth you can see the permissive it asks for. Which is profile and history.
- xav_authentique 6y agoIt looks like they request these permissions: user-top-read, playlist-read-private, playlist-read-collaborative and they also gets your your name, username and profile picture.
- rapnie 6y agoSeems a neat way to collect information for their startup. Maybe a Spotify competitor, or a datamarket for selling people's music preferences.
