Exclusive: The Spanish public broadcaster RTVE is blocking podcasts from its national radio station RNE in third party podcast apps - and breaking how open RSS works altogether. One app that it’s blocked, AntennaPod, is free on Android and open-source, but its users can see but can’t download RNE shows - in a country where over 80% of people use Android.
