Spotify Sued Over Alleged Fake Streams
Update: 2025-11-05
Description
Spotify faces a new class action lawsuit, accused of turning a blind eye to fraudulent streaming. The lawsuit alleges that a significant portion of Drake's streams are inauthentic, generated by bot accounts. It claims that this fraud causes financial harm to legitimate artists and benefits Spotify through increased advertising dollars. The lawsuit is based on an examination of Drake's streams between 2022 and 2025, revealing abnormal VPN usage and falsely mapped streams. Spotify maintains they do not benefit from artificial streaming and invest in systems to combat it.
