How to get out of Findaway when you no longer have a “delete project button”

So I had already been removing my books from all the distributors individually within Findaway Voices’ interface… but someone on the Facebook Group Wide For The Win suggested they were also deleting all their audio files. BRILLIANT. Hard to steal what you don’t even HAVE.

Since you can only republish with audio files, you need to republish first with “no distributors” and then go back in and do the audio deletes.

I also changed my meta data and replaced the cover image with a special message for Findaway.

I realize that some people really buy this BS that “oh some bean counter just copy/pasted the end user agreement for Spotify. They didn’t know!”

So you’re telling me… it was important enough for Findaway to change their TOS, but wasn’t somehow important enough for a single person to actually READ that TOS update, that they expect all of US to read?

Also why does a USER agreement for Spotify have so much weird rights grab language? Are thy creating derivative work from people’s comments?

I personally think this was a stress test/shit test… where they had plausible deniability and they could test what people will tolerate and how successfully they can gaslight us with weaponized incompetence.

I didn’t know weaponized incompetence extended to the corporate level, but I guess now I do.

If you believe this BS, I have a bridge to sell you.

I know it’s hard to believe this stuff… that people are really THIS malicious and sociopathic, but they ARE. Not that long ago there was a TikTok making the rounds… a woman had gone on an 11 day trip, leaving her husband with the kids. She got home and it looked literally like they had been robbed. If you believe for a SINGLE minute that that man wasn’t punishing her for leaving the house and her “lady duties”, I have some ocean front property in Nebraska I’d like to sell you to go with that bridge. I’ll give you a great deal!
