Spotify Technology will add a “content advisory” to any podcast episode that includes discussion about Covid-19, Chief Executive Officer Daniel Ek has said, after coming under fire from rock and folk legends for giving voice to misinformation about Covid-19 vaccines.
“This new effort to combat misinformation will roll out to countries around the world in the coming days,” Ek wrote in a blog post. “To our knowledge, this content advisory is the first of its kind by a major podcast platform.”
The advisory will direct listeners to a Covid-19 hub that contains facts and information from medical and health experts, as well as links to trusted sources.
