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 last 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 they could be watch movies for free.

Piracy comes to Spotify

How could it be otherwise, the spread of this rumor has spread like wildfire via TikTok. And it is that many users have begun to upload videos showing their surprise when they have discovered that certain movies could actually 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 like 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, they work in another way. manner.

This is not a video podcast

The trick is in the publication of a video podcast, and instead of uploading chapters of the recording of a normal podcast, files corresponding to a complete movie in mp4 format are uploaded. The result is tremendously effective, and as is to be expected, it attracts the attention of many users, so many, that it didn't take them long to detect the problem in the application.

It was enough to search for the specific podcast and see how numerous movies were being uploaded in the list of episodes that pretended to be simple episodes of a fake podcast. And we said that it was enough because they have already disappeared almost all thanks to the work of Spotif, so currently you can no longer find any kind of clip of this type in the playlists of the application. It was to be expected that the service would take action on the matter, and although it apparently took longer than expected, it must be borne in mind that monitoring millions of contents a 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 are disappearing

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 just have to take a look at the term “Full movies” to see how there are countless fake podcasts that invite users to click to get a link that takes them to dark places.

Our recommendation? That you completely skip those links since the only thing you will achieve is that your computer will be infected with some dangerous malware or virus. The truth is that this type of practice is not strange at all, since we had previously 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.
