$SPOT Spotify removes thousands of 'fake' podcast, CNN reports
Spotify has removed tens of thousands of fake podcasts that promoted illegal online pharmacies following media scrutiny and an investigation by Senator Maggie Hassan, but the findings have raised concerns about the platform's ability to proactively identify and remove harmful content before it reaches users, CNN's Clare Duffy reports. "As criminals use AI to perpetuate scams and other dangerous actions faster and in larger quantities, all online platforms need to step up, protect their users, and enforce comprehensive strategies to remove illegal content," Hassan said in a statement to CNN.
