definitely. You’re absolutely right, Spotify is a privacy nightmare and I didn’t say otherwise.
The post I was replying to was arguing that the service they were using was private, I just told them that even if the app doesn’t need any permissions they still have the ability to spy on their users and most probably do so.
And how, prey tell, should a music streaming service that delivers suggestions based on your preferences deliver content if not by analyzing your listening behavior?
If you’re afraid of that, then there’s no music service whatsoever you can use.
at the very least, I expect it to make requests for every song you’re streaming which are associated with your account and payment information.
they also get your music consuming habits, because they know the times you listen to music and to which music at each time.
that’s a hell lot of data to analyze and sell.
As if Spotify and other services don’t lmao.
Spotify even dug your bluetooth device name.
