Spotify was becoming the place to watch pirated movies for free

Done the law done the snare. The imagination of some users knows no horizons, and the latest great example of this digital survival comes to us directly from Spotify. And it is that, if you thought that Spotify was a place to listen to music, it is because you had never thought that you could watch movies for free.

Piracy comes to Spotify

How could it be otherwise, the spread of this rumor has spread like wildfire through TikTok. And it is that many users have begun to upload videos showing their surprise when they discovered that certain movies could indeed be seen through Spotify. But how is this possible?

This is a dirty trick of those who are willing to share illegal content in any way. Taking into account that video publishing services such as YouTube or Vimeo have super strict and effective measures against piracy and the publication of copyrighted content, some manage to sneak content where these limitations do not exist or simply work differently. way.

This is not a video podcast

The trick is in posting a video podcast, and instead of uploading chapters of the recording of a normal podcast itself, files corresponding to a complete movie are uploaded in mp4 format. The result is tremendously effective, and as expected, it attracts the attention of many users, so many that the application hasn’t taken long to detect the problem.

It was only enough to search for the specific podcast and see how numerous movies were being uploaded in the list of chapters that pretended to be simple chapters of a false podcast. And we said that it was enough because have already disappeared almost all thanks to the work of Spotif, so currently you can no longer find any type of clip of this type in the application’s playlists. It was to be expected that the service would take action on the matter, and although they have apparently taken longer than expected, we must bear in mind that monitoring millions of contents per day must be a somewhat… complicated task. And it is that if they depend on the complaints of the users, who is going to denounce the encounter with the Gru film?

Little by little they disappear

Today it is somewhat difficult to find movies hosted on Spotify, but the plague is a reality, and the service will probably have to fight it for a while. You only have to take a look at the term “Full movies” to see how there are countless fake podcasts that invite users to click for a link that takes them to dark places.

Our recommendation? That you completely pass those links since the only thing you will get is that your computer is infected with some dangerous malware or virus. The truth is that this type of practice is not strange at all, since previously we had already seen how Google Drive folders, Dropbox folders and even social network accounts became authentic on-demand streaming services with a couple of clicks. Of course, do not expect to find 4K resolution, because that is not going to happen.
