Q. What clicks in your mind when you think of "Spotify"?
A. MUSIC, & why not, it's just an audio songs app.

NO. It's not just a music app anymore but a rising propaganda machine targeting the youth of the country who are major subscribers base, via their podcasts.

Read on..

Popular among youngsters, the App grabbed decent footprint (2+mn subs), since launched (Feb19). Music-loving nation & smartphone explosion brought better revenue & branding (got 3x after IND launch), further pushed with 2mn PODCAST hosting. Announced 12 more IND lang in Apr21

The problem is not making business. The problem comes here-
Spotify tied up with The Indian Express for their PODCASTs '3Things'. Now just look at the subject & the narrative they are injecting here in the series. Stan Swamy, Kalita bail, "Ayodhya land scam", "Loni assault",
3/
"Modi worsens economy", Bengal's prep for 3rd wave, Mukul Roy's returns TMC, Pawar's meeting/opp. coming together against BJP, KRL HC stays Lakshadweep reform.. and whatnot!! Even if you can't spend time listening all, just read the description & the rest is self-explanatory.
4/
If this isn't enough, look at the other Podcast channels that Spotify host- Quint,NewsLaundry,ThePrint, Ashraf Engg,WSJ,NYT,BBC etc. Is anybody left..? Yes, none other than ultra propagandist Dhruv Rathee!! Now that makes list complete. Isn't birds of a feather flock together?
5/
A Swedish co making bucks in IND while partnering these anti-India, anti-govt elements, who spew venom against own country, spread negativity d&n, gradually making room in youngsters sub-conscious mind to brainwash them is nothing but just another tactic of info-war ecosystem!
6/
NO @eldsjal @spotifyindia @AmarBatra, it doesn't work like this! You may have your personal biases, political opinions, but do not use essentially a music app, as a propaganda hub like this that affects the masses. Spotify must review podcast content & channel choices!

Imagine, if 2002 Guj riots, Teesta Setalvad, Hilary Clinton, and Narayan Murthy come in the same story!

This EXCLUSIVE thread will throw light on some lesser-known facts, that include an (in)famous international NGO & biggies!

Let's begin with the post-independence era when the world's top intel agencies wanted to sneak into every country, where NGOs were proven as the best proxy tool to penetrate during cold world war times. From ideological warfare to covert ops, NGOs were leading from the front.

Similarly, the CIA established the Ford Foundation (FF) for whom the first PM Jawahar Lal Nehru laid the red carpet in 1952. This was a modern-day invasion at the invitation.

Today, is the last day of service of RR Swain sir DGP J&K and his 3 decades of illustrious career.

Radical islmist are celebrating his ouster, and you know why!

If this post reaches to your timeline, humble request to read & share max.
1/ Image
RR Swain sir joined J&K police force in 2020 after his 15 years of service at RAW.

For his intense grip on narco terrorism, terror financing, and most importantly identifying "insiders" in the system.

2/
Swain sir single handedly dismantled the terror finance ecosystem in the valley.

He openly advocats dismissal of govt employees with any links to separatism or militancy and believe in rooting out the terrorism.
