The band Massive Attack has become the first major group to withdraw its music from Spotify, protesting against the 600 million euro investment by founder Daniel Ek in the defense technology company Helsing. This company uses AI to support military decisions. The band has joined the initiative "No Music for Genocide," which includes over 400 artists blocking music in Israel. Massive Attack emphasizes that the money earned by artists could support lethal technologies, calling for a change.
