I am playing music from Spotify Web Player since a few hours and I see that the network monitor shows a steady flow of 180 KiB/s being sent from my computer while download is not much. The total sent data till now is 1.3GiB while the received is 417MiB.
Why and what is all this going data outside of my computer when playing spotify through web :blobconfused:

The industry's current approach to cybersecurity is to ban running non-preapproved EXE files from non-preapproved locations.

This is completely giving up on the idea of a computer as a thing that runs software created by the user. It is also an admission of complete defeat of the idea of an Operating System as a trusted guardian of security (because otherwise it would be safe to run EXEs).

It is likely that this won't be the last of user rights to go. Once gone, they will be hard to get back.
