If this ends up being legit, then I'm taking away 2 things from this:
Get your support team on the same page as your marketing agencies.
They should have also sent this to me since I get a dozen messages a week from artists' PR agencies asking to be added to my playlist 😅 -
Oh wow, that escalated quickly...
Now they are officially claiming to be Spotify
Sending a bunch of clickbait links
Asking for your physical address... -

I guess I'll find out when I hop on a zoom call with them next week, lol. It seems like they're going to set me up with a Spotify account rather than using my existing spotify account. We'll see if that's indeed the case.
This is both a very confusing scam, and also a very confusing promotion if legit -

Ah, yeah, after Lee's hack?
Yeah exactly. That was some expert level social engineering right there.

I imagine it's an issue with hiring third party marketing agencies for things. Most large companies do that.
@markguim what do you think of this? Maybe a classic case of one hand not talking to the other?
The fact that I have mutual connections with ppl that work there...
Yeah definitely could be that. Really you’d need to get someone from @SpotifyCares to confirm this is actually the PR agency they use. I’m pretty sure @snubs and I mentioned this in our video actually 😄 -

This just got more interesting. This seems to be a third party company of some sort.

Interesting. Even if it is “legit” — as in it really is some third party company offering some sort of real service — unless they have permission from @Spotify, they can’t be going around using Spotify’s trademark in their domain and business names. -

Anyone else got this mysterious app on their Mac? #5KPlayer which I don’t remember installing, is NOT from Mac App Store, automatically became default video player, runs in background after quitting, but is actually an iOS app (and not on my iOS devices or in my iOS app history)?
Yikes, found a reference to it in this article, definitely malware https://www.zdnet.com/google-amp/article/promethium-apt-attacks-surge-government-sponsorship-suspected/ -

My company uses your company. I have one password, don't use a password manager, and can access every service I need to do my job, and I can do that extremely securely.
That's exactly what I want, but across the whole internet, oh and maybe drop the password too 😅 -

For sure - my complaint is that we wouldn't stand for the medical profession to say "abstinence is the only way to prevent unwanted childbirth"; I'm not saying no-one should use password managers. I'm trying to say that it's our (security folks) responsibility to build better.
My problem with this whole thread is that yes, of course we need something better than passwords, but also, yes, there is a lot of improvement being made right now. It's not like someone can make something that "solves passwords" and suddenly everyone will be using it.

Fiber stays on if power dies? Is it dumb I didn’t know that?
Depends on what's powering the other end of the fiber line. I guess mine is on a different grid, but I'm also in a weird spot between two different power companies. -
