    This should theoretically at least be illegal, as they abuse the power of the platform to favor certain tracks unfairly.

          Spotify is AFAIK Swedish

          It was started in Sweden where its operations are still based, but it’s headquartered in Luxembourg and it chose to IPO on the New York Stock Exchange.

          Luxembourg screams “tax efficiency” to me, so their list of pre-IPO investors must be quite the thing.

            I disagree, I live in Scandinavia in one of the best democracies in the world.
            EU is mostly OK IMO. Democracy can never be perfect, because it’s about compromises. But without the compromises you’ll have a real dystopia.
            But here is just about as good as it gets at our current level of development.
            So get real why don’t you?

              Sweden has regressing with the rest of the west.

              Sure they have it better than most of oecd but the corporate take over is underway, they botched the immigration policy which resulted with serious crime rates…

              A tiny foil wearing person would think that this was done on purpose to undo Swedish strong socio economic policy

              Time will tell but the trend for Sweden is not looking good same way as other countries…

                OK before you claimed it had already happened stating: “All western regimes sold out us out, mate” .
                Now you claim it WILL happen: “the corporate take over is underway”.

                That’s called moving the goal post, and is a VERY dishonest way to argue a point.
                You are either confused or dishonest.
