The light at the end of the tunnel. An experiment in relevance. All views unwelcome. Not from Malawi. Not on Facebook. You lucky people. Self checkout everytime
My late husband @Totalbiscuit being mentioned in a monetized lazy listicle video by @WatchMojo called "10 YouTubers Who Made Videos When They Knew They Were Dying" is tasteless enough. Plugging their AI slop music project in it as well? Unforgiveable. You should be ashamed.
In the Scots language the word 'google' means 'To Decieve' - thanks to the power of generative AI the translation is now appropriate.
And before you start suggesting Bing. In Scots a 'bing' is a spoil heap, a pile of discarded low value dirt. The leftovers you don't want.

Is forcing dominant websites such as Deutsche Bahn's https://t.co/aOmR7OY7Wl to show competitors' trains always a good thing?
It can make things very hard for passengers, here's why...

111,977 exact duplicate rows. The same song showing identical play counts across multiple streaming platforms simultaneously — statistically impossible if it represents real usage.
Hundreds of unexplained negative entries. Zero explanation.
I sent them a full forensic report. Every anomaly documented.
Their response: this is the best we can do.
If your collecting society can send you self-processed data they’ve already flagged as unreliable — and face no obligation to correct it — no artist anywhere can verify what they’ve been paid.
APRA AMCOS. GEMA. PRS. SOCAN. SESAC. SACEM. ASCAP. BMI. BUMA STEMRA. SUISA. SIAE. CMRRA. Among many others…
IT’S ALL THE SAME NETWORK RELYING ON OPACITY TO SURVIVE
Our music. Their numbers. No proof required.
More is coming. Stay close.
I am the first artist to force disclosure of my royalty data globally using article 15 of the GDPR, what I found out shocked me. The music industry is broken

My dear client. He sat beside me when I told his story to the Inquiry. I feel numb at his passing. He suffered so much and endured tremendous grief. He was stoical but marked by tragedy. Those malignants who put him through all this are beneath contempt.
