Spotify’s stance on the genocide in Gaza?

[carorata]

I would like to understand Spotify’s position regarding its involvement or continued partnerships with companies and entities complicit in the genocide taking place in Gaza. Many of us are increasingly uncomfortable supporting platforms that remain silent or profit from this situation.

As a listener who values ethical choices, I ask: does Spotify intend to take a clear stand on this issue? Will it consider its responsibility as a global media platform in the face of such atrocities?

Thank you for taking this seriously.

Help! The CEO of Spotify is using spotify money to fund AI kill-drones. Both in development and sale for military use. I don’t want my subscription money or ad-cents going toward figuring out how to best kill children in foreign countries. I will be deleting my account.

My favorite band just ripped their entire catalog from your app, making it essentially useless to me. How about you stop using our money to help program AI to kill people and you can continue receiving it. Otherwise the public will tank you. We aren’t asking. Do this or we are gone forever.

I'm cancelling my account...after so many years of building up my account ... what is the point if we don't take action against this horror...we don't even get an answer.

I just found out Spotify is funding AI drones to kill people! How is this possible?

[daniparrafa]

we pay for art, music, podcast, not for murdering people? 

[Racerevealparty]

AI weapons? **bleep** are we doing here?

[mclaughj]

If Ek actually gave a damn about Spotify as a music service, he'd be investing in the Godot like "Hi-fi" or whatever it's currently called rather than military industrial complex murder weapons.

I'm out after I get the family moved over to Tidal who (AFAIK) don't facilitate murder, are cheaper, better quality, and pay artists more.

It's inadmissible the amount of money your platform has invested in weapons. I feel so ashamed of trusting you for so many years. Years you've been rising money in order to help perpetrate genocide nowadays. I call for a massive leave of this platform. 

Off I go.

Shame on you.

[selim]

I am also leaving Spotify. Not accepting the invests and price increasings. 

Every artist should follow and leave this platform.

• I’ve moved to Deezer, hopefully they’re better but if not I think CD’s are the answer

I'm cancelling my account. Spotify has blood on its hands. I would encourage everyone to leave this platform even if you have a free account.

I am cancelling too. Lets biuld a better world up, every little helps

[rosstiferd]

I just discovered this. I tried to have a conversation with them. In fact I tried to have multiple conversations. All they do is end the chat. Cowards. 

[ashme]

I have done same. Take your business to TIDAL..much better ethically and sound quality is an arm and a leg more dynamic. 

[ashme]

With you did same…sound quality is sooo much better too! Ethically improved …no Genocide no war free Palestine 🇵🇸 pull up your socks and come clean Spotify or your doomed! 

[VinDemon]

No more money from me Spotify. Shame!

[Mayak3]

Чем больше людей поддерживающих и обеляющих террористов и убийц из Хамас покинет спотифай, тем чище тут станет воздух. И, да, когда в ваших странах понаехавшие -  и так любимые вами, -  начнут устанавливать свои порядки - шариат и т.п , - вам уже ничего и никто не поможет. 

Но это ваш выбор.
