To indicate that if we don't like to hear hateful ads, we can turn them off by giving you money, is deeply missing the point. The point is that you are allowing your platform to spread disgusting, racist, discriminatory misinformation. I already am a subscriber and have been for years. I haven't had to listen to these ads, but I'm not going to continue giving my money to a company that endorses fascism. This isn't a "both sides" kind of issue. You've lost me, and as word gets out, you're going to lose more of us too.
I definitely won't be subscribing. You guys support ice
I just logged in and saw that I had earned a special badge--20 years of Pandora. That's hard to even believe but it's been the engine for so many fun days and nights, grilling and partying and enjoying my favorite music.
I don't care. Today, I learned that you're allowing paid advertisements from ICE. ICE is evil. My account is toast as soon as I finish posting this and take the steps I need to close out.
ICE Recruitment ads?
Seriously?
Who's running this show?
I agree I will be leaving after over 10 years of your site. ICE recruitment-- for all the damage and illegal acts on the streets of our cities....seriously. If the Airports are refusing NOEM ads, you can refuse ICE Recruitment ADS.
Also removing Pandora from all devices...Absolutely disgusting that you people allow these hateful DHS ads on your platform. The greed over integrity is unacceptable!!!
Kristi Noem ICE ads
What’s with these ICE ads and Deportation Barbi?
Pandora supports ICE - encouraging others to cancel also
Did you guys think we weren’t going to find out that you’ve been streaming ads to recruit ICE sharks? And that no one would care?
SHAME on you Pandora! You are showing your true interest - the bottom line. I’ve been subscribing for 15 years but that’s it for me. SHAME SHAME SHAME. Money over morals - you are a disgrace! Goodbye Pandora.
May Cancel My Pandora after 20 years of Loyalty for ICE and DHS ads
I cant believe im in this position but I am now seriously considering cancelling my Pandora subscription because they're running ICE and DHS gestapo ads.
This is a hard decision but I need to see Pandora respond CORRECTLY and REMOVE AND DENY all ads and future deals with ANY Trump admin branch whatsoever. This isn't a joke, I'm not playing around with fascists.
I will not apologize for having principals, and I will not humor the weakness of others let alone to their profit. The objectively wrong capitalist simpery is not something I will be part of, even if I love the product.
Do the right thing. Remove the ads, Pandora, all of them, forever, and apologize for the mistake too. If they're running still when the traitor leaves office for whatever reason, I will cancel my Pandora subscription and simply pirate music from now on.
Remove the disgusting government propaganda add to recruit ICE agents. It's gross. Pandora is accepting tax payment funded government propaganda to support its business and it's disgusting. Listened to Pandora for 20 years and may be removing the app today.
Ditch the ICE ads
What is your position on ICE ads? Are you going to continue to run them?
Yes or no will be sufficient- no need for any attempted justification or suggestion that I can upgrade to avoid ads. Simply curious if you are going to continue to take ad dollars from an organization that is kidnapping American citizens.
Thank you.
Hell ya straight traders to the United States people all for what to say they did something they accomplished nothing hope they got money stacked away because when it’s all over they’ll be getting sued look up qualified immunity because they now forfeited their qualified immunity when they kidnapped people off the streets when they broke in people houses without a warrant so ya hope they got good lawyer money cause they gonna need it n i wish they stop playing that and the one where they keep lying about why the government shut down not all money is good money Pandora
yeah ive heard spotify has them going as well... disappointing
Agree with the above. Heard the first ICE recruitment ad, and was very disappointed in Pandora. I will not upgrade to premium just so I don't have to hear ads. Pandora should not promote government issues-period. Whichever side it's for. Please do not cave to this administration and allow them to takeover our media with propaganda.
Does everyone know that Pandora runs ICE Recruitment ads!
I cannot support an organization that supports a dictator that is destroying our democracy. I am canceling my subscription immediately. You should do the same and show them that we will not stand for their complicity in the destruction of our democracy.
PS: Spotify is also guilty of this.
So I’m listening away today and ad pops in and it’s an add for ICE. **ahem** pandora
I joined 15 years ago, and my favorite stations used to be the ones that didn’t play ICE recruitment ads. ICE has repeatedly violated Americans 4th amendment protections by keeping detainees in jail past their release dates, countless warrantless arrests with zero probable cause, and literally shooting peaceful protestors in the face with grenade launchers. Idk what they’re paying you but you’re on the wrong side of history.
Hello there.
I have learned that Pandora is airing ads for ICE recruitment, and therefore I am ending my long-time subscription because I can no longer support a company that accepts money from an administration so entirely bent on dismantling our democracy.
Shame on you, Pandora. Please change your ways -- if you so, I would strongly consider resubscribing, as would many others.
Came here to cancel my subscription, and find a new music app.
I don't even have ads. I'm a premium user, almost 20 years now, so I literally don't see/hear...
But that's a HUGE F0KING problem. Get your racist @SS BS outta here. You disgust me, Pandora and Sirius, and Spotify. Gross.
What's unfortunate is that Pandora is owned by Sirius. Everyone just needs to quit playing BS ads. It's gross. And inhumane. **ahem** hate this country.
