Honestly, it feels a bit 'counter-intelligence'-y to me. Like, it's so over the top that I almost suspect Spotify did it themselves.

The Whois on the site says that it was registered on April 5th of 2021 for 1 year and the customer is based out of Ontario, Canada. Tucows was the registrant, and they seem to be a generic handler of web domains, based out of Toronto. https://tucows.com/

Other than that, I can't really find out any additional info about the site or who is running it.

I'm sure other HNers are more adept at searching for these kinds of things, and I'd love to know more about the paper-trail of it.
