  <title>129: Kelly Early: Spotify's Links to the Arms Industry</title>
  <description>Before the end of 2025 we stopped publishing the show to Spotify because of the links between its then CEO Daniel Ek and arms manufacturers. Spotify has also censored pro-Palestine voices and is known for its exploitation of artists when it comes to remuneration for the use of their art.&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; As part of our process to move away from the platform, we spoke to Kelly Early who co-hosts the For Tech's Sake podcast to discuss the sinister connections between the streaming platform and weapons of war, and potential alternatives for artists and listeners.&amp;amp;nbsp; We wanted to get this episode out way sooner but we have been working through a bit of a backlog of work, so we are very happy to finally have it out there. Huge thanks to Kelly for being a guest on the show and to our loyal supporters over on Patreon who are truly helping us to build the Rebel Matters into an independent media platform bringing perspectives you might not otherwise get on important issues.&amp;amp;nbsp; Full video episode out on YouTube and audio only on many of the usual platforms with the exception of the aforementioned. Please like and subscribe and enjoy the show!&amp;amp;nbsp; Get early access, exclusive content, and help us to build a radical independent media platform by becoming a Patron. www.patreon.com/rebelmatters </description>
