    • not like i would know who she is but Joni Mitchell quit on Spotify too.sted
    • their reputation is def. tanking... its impossible to defend misinfo.with a rational mind.neverscared
    • Yeah bad move by Spotify, they were nuts to give him that kind of money in the first place, joe rogan belongs on YouTube with the rest of the kretins_niko
    • Rogan took the money, happy to lose what little credibility he had, he won't enjoying being censored though, nor paying a large chunk of his payday backfadein11
    • Spotify doesn't censor all the nonsense in rap music so why would it censor Rogan? It was a brilliant move by Spotify, giving Rogan the $MondoMorphic
    • Let's see how it pans out ;)fadein11
    • It's a lose/lose for Spotify. If they censor, they'll lose credibility, if they don't, they'll look like chumps.formed
    • How they didn't see this disaster coming is beyond me, but it's enough to make me question paying them a penny.formed
    • I wonder what the red line Spotify will refuse to cross is? Beatles? Stones? Any old catalogue?_niko
    • all tech stocks were down. Neil Young is irrelevant.hotroddy
    • As much as I'm happy to shit on Rogan, I can't see it being anything other than a downward spiral if artists can hold other content to moral ransom.Nairn
    • if its misinfo declared by the WHO like in this case they better be moral...neverscared
    • The WHO? WHOse initial guidance was completely misguided? WHO's possibly beholden to the responsible party?
      Therein lies the crux of this.

    • Here's hoping that all the totalitarian lefties realize censoring people is bad.MondoMorphic
    • Of course, and all the media attention increased his disinfo tenfold. He's really not that important, like Neil Young.fadein11
    • The only takeaway is Spotify is still a shit platform.fadein11
    • Neil who? Nobody cares.stewart
    • they need to fix the shitty UIpango
    • Spotify lost $4 billion in market value because all stocks currently tank.fairbaken
    • Neil Young is so irrelevant....that Spotify's stock is tanking....the avalanche has only begun.utopian
