I'm not sure what you're suggesting. Russia doing something to disrupt GPS? NATO switching GPS to combat mode? What?

No, Russia is likely jamming GPS. It’s a somewhat frequent occurrence even before the war.

Ok but what does any of this have to do with Spotify?

According to Downdetector, there's a large amount of services that have outages at the moment: https://downdetector.com/

The graphs for Spotify and multiple other services look very similar, so Spotify being down might just be a part of something larger. Whether it's Russian hackers or some more mundane is pure speculation at this point.

They did block RT... I wouldn't have expected any hackers to have cared too much about that, however.

It's called hybrid warfare.

Russians DDOSing various services and jamming communications.

Dunno if "combat mode" GPS is a thing anymore with GLONASS etc.
