Spotify: looks to be on the road to banning your FRIEND DAN …

Spotify has banned (“took down” – lots of euphemisms) one of my episodes/podcasts.

Banned episode:

UPDATE (9:38 AM: TWITTER (which I’m paying almost 20 bucks a month now), is also on the road to banning me –

I have been podcasting, in one form or another, for about 10 years. In those 10 years, right from the beginning, I’ve had positive feedback and an audience.

I’ve never had more than 100 people listening at any given time – in the world of podcasting, I’d say that’s a pretty small number … not a number for anyone to be concerned about except ME.

… and yet …

In those 10 years I’ve experienced banning, shadow-banning, and the outright theft of my intellectual property, prepaid fees, domains, etc, by Go Daddy in late 2021. YouTube has canceled me so many times I’ve simply given up on their bullshit …

Before you tell me “Dan, I know about this NEW NEW podcasting site”, just shut the fuck up for a minute: I’ve been down that road, and even sites that don’t immediately ban me at first have one thing in common – not so many eyeballs or ears … not much of a user base.

Am I giving up on Spotify? – no … I’ll keep posting there.

What do I expect to happen next? – in 90 days or less I think Spotify cancels me, completely.

But here’s my question: WHAT THE FUCK AM I SAYING THAT IS SO FUCKING DANGEROUS THAT 50-100 PEOPLE CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO HEAR IT?
