I heard someone screaming in distress and suffocating, freaking me out; then I realised it was coming from my speaker, where Spotify was playing. I had tried to get some background music going while I worked, but wow, 5 minutes later and the sound of this person suffocating is still in my head.
There was no button to report this or even an ability to block this track from ever again playing on my speaker. If Spotify is going to publish this sort of "music", I need the ability to avoid it, or I'll have to go elsewhere.
