I saw a discussion about this sort of thing on the DistroKid site the other day.
It occurred to me that a bad actor could easily take down a musician's revenue stream by hiring out a bunch of bots.
Since there's no way of knowing who hired the bots, the streaming services simply assume that it was the musician and automatically de-list their music.
There's really nothing a musician can do to defend against something like that.

There are things the streaming service can do though .. but that costs money .. easier to say 'sorry everybody' ..
