I mean fair enough, i use this version of Spotify and don't pay them a single cent: https://bestforandroid.com/apk/spotify-premium-mod-apk/

But if I was a paying customer i would be pretty pissed opening Spotify the first time on my 3 week travels and seeing this crap :⁠-⁠O Funnily there isn't even an option to change the location as suggested. Neither in the modded app nor on spotify.com on FF mobile.

I created my account in Spain around 2009, moved to Canada in 2014 and came back to Spain late last year. Never had a problem with this :-?

Only supports the apartment you're registered in, and only if you gave all the permissions to the goverment app, and stored your biometrics and agreed to everything just to be first in the line for the chip implant

That's how Spotify has been working for years. Spotify doesn't work officially in my current whereabouts, so, in order to use it I just registered an account via vpn and now I just need to log in into spotify using vpn once in two weeks. It has been working this way a few years for me already.
