Whom does Spotify try to aquisice here?

Their users? Their content creators? Or rather their staff?

All 3 groups could be possible reasons. But given how little median content creators matter to the organization, users and staff are more likely.

But if it were the users, then why buy Joe Rogan's users at all? Especially at a record braking price?

This makes me believe it's more likely staff.

If that is the case one has to wonder: is this generally the sad mental state of tech workers? Or is it rather a few employees who, emboldened by cancel-culture, will toss their political agenda around the office while other employees, intimidated by cancel-culture, shy away from calling out the obvious BS?
