As a Spotify Free user, Mia (@miss.mia777) is not unfamiliar with the typical advertisement that occasionally pops up in between tracks. What she didn’t expect, however, was for one of those ads to ruin her listening experience as she cruised along the highway. The commercial, recruiting agents for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), led her to promptly delete her account with the music streaming service.
Mia shared her experience in a viral TikTok. It has since earned over 4 million views at the time of writing. Her followers swiftly followed suit, sparking a conversation on the ethics of music streaming.
