I don't use Spotify, simple.
If you like electronic music I can recommend Digitally Imported (https://www.di.fm/ https://www.di.fm/).
The best part is that I don't need to find new music since it's radio. Also it's like half the price of a spotify sub.
- Cthulhu_ 5y agoGood for you, very individualist, looking out for yourself. That said, the vast majority of people is not aware this is happening, will just hit 'agree' on anything that asks permission, etc. The only thing protecting them is legislation. It's up to people like you and me that are actually aware of these things to fight back. I mean if it wasn't for 'us', tech- and privacy savvy people, secure and encrypted communications, privacy laws, etc would not be nearly as much of a thing that they are now. That service you mentioned mentions that data will be exported to the US: https://www.di.fm/member/privacy https://www.di.fm/member/privacy. They don't seem to mention what user statistics or tracking they do though.
- staticelf 5y agoWell sure, but I don't believe signing a petition won't do anything. The only thing would be to stop paying them. I already have done that and I advice others to not be spotify customers as well.
- staticelf 5y agoThey do say that under the "INFORMATION WE COLLECT AUTOMATICALLY" header. It is not much just the IP and some other basic stuff. It is a small company that runs the service so I don't think they have the resources that are required to do a lot of data collection and analysis and they wouldn't benefit from it either.
