Boycott Spotify – TYPiNG ouT oF THe BLue

International Day for Preventing the Exploitation of the Environment in War • November 6

When countries go to war, the environment quietly suffers. Trees are burned, rivers poisoned, and soil turns toxic. The United Nations says around 40% of all internal conflicts in the past 60 years are linked to natural resources like oil, timber, and water. And even when the war ends, the damage stays for decades—polluted air, lost species, destroyed farmland. The environment becomes the silent victim that nobody talks about.

This is why, back in 2001, the UN General Assembly declared November 6 as the International Day for Preventing the Exploitation of the Environment in War and Armed Conflict. It reminds the world that war doesn’t just kill people—it kills the planet too. Every bomb, every fire, every oil spill leaves scars that outlast generations.

The message today is simple—stop exploiting the earth for war, heal what’s broken, and let peace include the planet too.

Because honestly, climate change alone is already a hassle—then war goes and makes it worse.

By the way, SPOTIFY is supporting HELSING—a defense tech company using AI for war. This is exactly the kind of exploitation the world’s trying to stop. When greed hides behind “innovation,” even music and nature become part of the battlefield. Enough wars already—even the planet’s tired.

Spotify changed the way the world listens, but somewhere along the way, something broke. Real artists—especially indie musicians—are slowly being pushed off the stage, replaced by cheap background tracks built for profit, not expression.

In January 2025, journalist Liz Pelly exposed an internal Spotify system called Perfect Fit Content (PFC)—a program designed to fill playlists with low-cost “ghost tracks” that have no identity, no story, and no soul. These tracks exist to save the company money, while real musicians fade from the spotlight. Listeners hear something “calm” or “focus-friendly,” but the artist behind the music doesn’t exist.

Then there’s Discovery Mode, where indie artists must accept lower pay just to be “recommended” by the algorithm. Refuse the deal, and you disappear into silence. Accept it, and you get exploited. It’s a quiet trap, and Spotify profits either way.

Meanwhile, Spotify’s CEO invests in Helsing, a company building AI for modern warfare. So while musicians struggle for basic visibility, the platform that uses their art is tied to technology built for conflict. How do you sing about peace, love, pain, or healing when the system behind your song chooses war over fairness?

Step by step, Spotify turned music into content, artists into data, and listeners into metrics. The soul of music—human storytelling, human struggle, human emotion—is being replaced by clean, empty audio loops designed to play, not to speak.

This is why something has to be said. This is why silence is dangerous. And this is why boycott is not drama—it is self-respect. Not only for musicians, but for listeners who still believe music should mean something.

Because music is not wallpaper. Music is not filler. Music is not a cheap substitute for human voices that bleed to create. Music should breathe, cry, fight, and heal. It should carry fingerprints, not fingerprints erased.

Spotify may have the stage, but we don’t have to keep showing up. We can walk away. We can choose platforms that honor music instead of stripping it for parts. We can stand with artists who refuse to be ghosts.

Boycott Spotify. Uninstall Spotify. Let the soul of music live somewhere honest—somewhere human—before the vanishing song disappears for good.
