Haven't seen anyone mention this. Wonder if it has anything to do with those scummy AI Slow Jam 1 and Shanghai uploads.

Hiatus Kaiyote, Genesis Owusu, King Gizzard and More Sign Petition Against Fraudulent AI-Generated Music Uploads

A petition started by Hiatus Kaiyote member Paul Bender is calling for digital streaming platforms to do more to stop fraudulent uploads.

Spotify's argument for why they're running the ICE ads is awful. They say its not against guidelines but they prohibited ads that "engage in or promote any other behavior that may place people at risk of harm." That seems like a major contradiction given what ICE is doing.

Spotify to Continue Running ICE Recruitment Ads as Boycotts Grow

Spotify has no plans to pull the DHS's ICE recruitment ads from their platform, even as some on social media call for boycotts.

Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

They pay very little, their founder is putting millions into the military industrial complex, and now they're running ads for ICE as they terrorize and commit violence against innocent people.

How many more reasons do you need to ditch Spotify?

Santiago Mayer @santiagomayer.com · 2d

Spotify is now running recruitment ads for ICE.

It’s time to cancel your account.

It’s impossible to overstate how much “abolish ice” is the normie position now here in chicago — just countless random moms at toddler soccer on a park district field asking me where I bought my anti-ice t-shirt. average people don’t like our neighborhoods being terrorized.

A friend ran the Chicago marathon today and said he couldn’t count the number of FUCK ICE signs along the way.

A few new updates have come to KGLW.net!

You can now read what makes a performance notable by holding the green text on a show page.

Groups now show how many songs you've heard from a single album. You can also view these stats on an album page by clicking "My Stats."

A screenshot showing the album distribution chart from a group page. It shows how many songs from each album this user has seen live.

Screenshot of the Ice, Death... album page, specifically the new "my stats" tab. Here it shows title, length, times played live, times seen for the user, and first and last appearances for the user.

1-866-952-4456 to tell Netflix that in no way do you want Elon fucking Musk determining what you watch.

I just called, got through in about 15 seconds, and told them that I strongly support queer inclusion in their programming and that I will cancel my subscription if they cave.

1. Led by Elon Musk, the far-right has exploded in a campaign to get Netflix to remove shows with queer and trans characters.

If Netflix capitulates to their demands, an already strained market for LGBTQ+ animators might become even more dire.

I’d love to say this is a step forward and that Spotify has improved but it just hasn’t. Eh is now a chairman and he says he’ll focus even more on “supercompanies.” I can only imagine Helsing is one of them given his role there.

If you’re boycotting Spotify, don’t go back. This isn’t it.

1. Trump has dug in on anti-trans provisions in the shutdown fight this morning, cancelling a meeting with Dems unless they cave on trans people.

His post to Truth Social is a clear indication that Republicans are making targeting trans people a priority.
