I worked on issues similar to this during my time at Apple, but from the search and discovery side of things. You would have bands in Apple Music name themselves genres like "Rock and Roll" or and all sorts of shenanigans.
- jrm4 3y agoShenanigans? You mean marketing? :)
- bradly 3y agoWe’ll see that’s the rub. Isn’t it? Should someone be able to create a band called Meditation Playlist? Is it fraud? Is it just unethical? Is it neither? It requires human judgment where that line is.
- jrm4 3y agoI don't think it's legally "fraud." I can't say it's unethical either. Some third party made a place where people can publicly post things and try to make them popular. They're just "hackers", in the positive 80's sense, to me. The responsibility for "fixing" it or whatever is on the platform.
- bradly 3y ago> The responsibility for "fixing" it or whatever is on the platform. I agree! It made for interesting search problems to solve for sure. What are your thoughts on the LassPass app? If they were phishing for LastPass credentials, that's going to be a problem, but if they had a real service then I'm not sure.
