On iOS, Spotify covertly uses location with no option to disable
Hi,
I am attaching some screenshots about behaviour that seems, to say, plain wrong, on iOS.
Why does Spotify (Legal entity in Luxembourg, Sweden) feel entitled to hijack my phone's location settings?
Note: I am a Romanian national, but using Bitdefender inside EU / European Single Market Area (EEA).
I mean, there are plenty of applications happy with me not having to bother to change the location from Romania to Italy, even though I am an Italian resident.
Especially my national banking apps. Imagine if I had to change location in my bank's app from Romania. In my honest opinion, that would only open me up to risk, and potentially risky payments. I mean, my bank works fine to pay inside the EU, even though the currencies are different, because it simply automatically applies a conversion rate and pays in EUR at the end.
Why am I forced to do this with Spotify?
