I've got a bucket of files locally that I want to listen to — I want a bucket in the cloud with a player attached that'll send data to Last.fm[4]. I want a solution that lets me play my music without a cloud providers algorithmic nonsense and restrictions applied to it.

By embedding imperceptible, error-minimizing noise into the music, HarmonyCloak effectively prevents AI systems from extracting meaningful patterns, all while preserving the perceptual quality of the music for human listeners. Our approach leverages time-dependent optimization constraints and psychoacoustic principles to ensure that the protective noise remains undetectable to the human ear.
