    Cool to see someone who worked on this :) Back in the day I wrote a (probably really bad, not a C/C++ developer) wrapper around libspotify for Node.js: https://github.com/FrontierPsychiatrist/node-spotify

    At some point it could do enough for me to build a webapp with Node.js running on a Rapsberry Pi to stream Spotify.

    I even got contacted by Spotify to take down the domain node-spotify.com for it.

    The way auth tokens are setup for Mopidy-Spotify *you* hold the encryption key for the blob with the OAuth data, and the intermediate server just has an id and the encrypted data. Note that the id is not a Spotify OAuth client-id but an internal one. This is done so we don't have to ship Mopidy-Spotify with the client-secret for the App registration (this was pre PKCE auth).

    I.e. I would be highly surprised if our OAuth integration was the source for this issue, but I'm obviously biased as the author of https://github.com/adamcik/oauthclientbridge

    As for libspotify, there you had to put in a (device) password and username, so if something scraped that config I guess all bets are off...
