Yeah that was intentional. Most people even now can't imagine that Spotify does this evil things. "It's just music" was a theme of this book.
But spotify realized along the way they tapped in to something, through their data collection they found a manipulation and then massively exploited it without many knowing.
It's easier to hate on the fiat Spotify -- harder to look at ourselves and ask sometimes "are we doing the same?"
VCs backed companies exist here, as do loaded non profits picking and choosing projects that fit their own world view.
So yeah, Spotify is a cautionary tale for sure.
