I get it, but they are not censoring Spotify.

No, they just want Spotify to do it for them. Is that any better?!

Correct. It's some of the content on Spotify that is disagreed with.

Bothsiderism?  Good luck with that. 

Mitchell's decision is not a meditation on reality and fantasy. 

She’s pulling her song catalog off Spotify because “irresponsible people are spreading lies that are costing people their lives.”

I always liked her version of "Both Sides Now" better than Judy Collins's. 

I don't do spotify or podcasts in general. I have no idea if Joe Rogan presents all sides in an objective manner, or if he is another "butthurt" right wing hack claiming to be fair and balanced.

Fox reporting that Loudon County VA will begin charging students who show up without masks with trespassing.

Of course, this won't do any good. Liberal prosecutors will put them back out on the street to offend again.

I think they should charge them as adults.

Someone tell golf this is satire.

I don't do Spotify or podcasts either and excuse me if I think Joni Mitchell hasn't listened to one of Joe Rogan's "controversial" podcasts.

People who don't think she could sing need to listen to "Help Me."

Ding, ding, ding.  Also:

‘A Menace to Public Health’: Doctors Demand Spotify Puts an End to Covid Lies on ‘Joe Rogan Experience’
“Although many have criticized Spotify for hosting Rogan on its platform, the open letter to Spotify does not request that Rogan’s show be taken off Spotify, nor does it demand that Spotify remove the Malone episode in particular. Rather, it is calling on Spotify to develop a comprehensive policy prohibiting misinformation.  ‘Any podcast that platforms dangerous people, people spreading dangerous ideas and misinformation, should not be allowed to go unchecked on the Spotify platform.’”

Gee I don’t see how policie like this could possibly be abused

I believe in a free market of ideas, but the first amendment includes the  right to boycott.

An aside, even though I tend to favor free markets over central planning, the invisible hand is bunk.

A corporate policy prohibiting the dissemination of false and dangerous information that can get people killed?  Potential abuse?  I don’t think you have anything to worry about.  Spotify has an exclusive, multiyear $100m contract with Rogan.   

But I hear the company is working on advisory labels for some content.
https://newsroom.spotify.com/2022-01-30/spotifys-platform-rules-and-approach-to-covid-19/
 
Here’s the advisory for the Rogan podcast: “WARNING: You may die if you believe any of the crap this person says, but, c'mon man, bro Joe brings a lot of money our way.”
