Spotify collects a lot of data on us and unlike Facebook, Google or even TikTok. For some reason, we’re cool with it. It’ll shock absolutely nobody that people are increasingly concerned about what data big tech are taking from us and yet, Spotify’s most viral campaign is one that literally shows off how much data they’ve taken from you.

In this video we’re going to look at the history of Spotify Wrapped, and how Spotify made data mining cool.

    I'll have you know it's very important to know that I was the number 1 buyer of Old Jamaica Ginger Beer at my local Sainsburys. Looks good on my LinkedIn profile.
  • @Megaghost_
    These companies must love you so much for exposing their practices. Are you sure you are not being shadowbanned? This channel should have way more subs, it's quite good.
  • @atlanticx100
    So in effect, they get the customers to do all the marketing for the target audience of their advertiser's classic.
  • @dustinoverbeck
    Am I reading your profile correctly? Only 4k subscribers? Your content is AMAZINGLY good and funny. And not good and funny like watching a rerun of a Seinfeld episode. But good, funny and timely. Do you have a merch store or something? I want to show some more support apart from a “like” or a share.
  • @RolingRandom
    This year I started to listen to some podcasts on open-spotify (pwa version) I wonder if I'm getting wrapped as well :)
  • @jachrishalt
    Good video my guy, it astounds me that you only have 4k subs.
  • Apple! I’ve never used Spotify, I don’t pay for music, lol. SoundCloud all the way.
  • "Spreading faster than a true crime podcast among millenial women" I feel seen
  • @panchicorex
    You exploit analysis YT provides you about your subs so don't come with tales. Your subs are all in with everything related to the keyword "toxic" this is clear and you exploit this psicology too. Very smart pants.
