ReVanced has received a DMCA takedown notice from Spotify regarding the Unlock Premium patch. Spotify claims the patch is a derivative of their copyrighted works and circumvents technological protection measures under DMCA 1201(a).
๐ธ Their arguments
- The patch enables access to copyrighted content by bypassing encryption and transfer key protocols
- It circumvents premium feature restrictions like unlimited skipping
- Legal precedent suggests bypassing software restrictions may constitute circumvention even when it affects features rather than direct content access
๐ธ Our understanding
The patch does not copy Spotify’s code. Songs on Spotify Free remain accessible without the patch โ premium features mainly affect convenience. However, if attestation bypass alone constitutes a DMCA violation, even basic “make the app work when patched” functionality could be affected.
The Spoof client patch recently resolved various Spotify patching issues, but login functionality broke shortly after. The patch has now been updated to fix the login problem.
๐ธ What to do
If you cannot log in after patching Spotify, repatch using the latest ReVanced Patches with the Spoof client patch.
The Spoof client patch was recently released to address Spotify patching issues, but stopped working shortly after. It has now been updated to resolve the problems.
๐ธ What to do
