No Spotify didn’t publish these songs. Some loser made them and posted them on Spotify. Spotify doesn’t listen to every song that gets posted on their service in the same way YouTube doesn’t watch every single video that gets uploaded.

Yeah the song isn't even listed anymore. Shit happens and I don't see how this is Spotify's fault. People upload all kinds of shit on YT and it gets reported then removed as designed. It's never going to be 100% preventative with how anyone can upload anything.
