You have an adblok - you do not have an account. Spotify turns whips on cheats
Spotify has enough. The heads of the company finally decided to stamp their feet louder and harder. The updated terms of service include a record that makes it clear: you block ads - we will block your account.
The new letter of Spotify's law says that anyone who will block advertisements or create any tools that enable it can already start bidding off the account on the site. The end of second chances and looking through fingers. The company goes to war with fraudsters.
This is not the first attempt to fight Spotify with combining clients .
In March, the company targeted users who used the modified version of the application. In this slightly modified form, free Spotify allowed you to enjoy some of the functions available only for premium accounts. The Swedes sent letters to their clients informing them that something suspicious was happening with their account and they were asking politely that this thing would stop happening as soon as possible. It was only when the recipient did not follow the recommendation that his account was blocked.
Apparently the times of generosity towards cheaters are over, because the new regulations do not provide for supporting epistolary art or warning signs. From March, a simple rule will apply: you block ads - you do not have an account.
Spotify has to earn some money, and it is not easy.
Using the blocking of advertisements, however not annoying, is in the case of Spotify ordinary piracy. It's really hard to find any good excuse for him. Advertising is either to be or not to be an advertising company. The Swedes must care about removing the adblokers from their service. Nearly all of Spotify's revenues come from ads in one way or another. On the one hand, the company gets money for the fact that non-paying users listen to the velvet voice of some nice lady praising the super ecological family sports premium cabriolet, on the other, the lack of advertising is one of the more serious arguments for staying in the subscription world for those who have already bought it.
I hope that Spotify will be able to convince the users with a stick or carrot to either take out a few zlotys from the pocket for a subscription, or listen to the end of the ads from the beginning, if they prefer to pay their time for services. Perhaps then Spotify could once again repeat the spectacular success of the end of 2018 and again end up with a positive cash balance. Then every miracle will be possible.
