Spotify confirms it's cracking down on Family Plan sharing

Spotify's co-CEO Alex Norström confirmed on this week's earnings call that the company is actively targeting Family Plan users who don't actually share a home. The new verification method involves a QR code that the plan manager must scan with their phone to prove residency. For anyone sharing a Spotify Family Plan with friends across town, this change means the loophole is closing, and the service is serious about enforcing its household rule.

Have you or someone you know been affected by Spotify's new Family Plan verification?
