Spotify CEO: Hateful Content Policy Was ‘Rolled Out Wrong’

It was only "rolled out wrong" after there was backlash...so yeah. 😏

Spotify’s recent controversial decision to apply a conduct code to artists’ personal conduct was handled poorly, according to CEO Daniel Ek. Speaking to Recode’s Peter Kafka and Kara Swisher at Code Conference, Ek says that the goal was never to act as “moral police” toward artists. “I think we rolled this out wrong, and we could have done a much better job,” he said.
