I currently have an ICECAST server that I run 24/7, I am very dedicated to it. I pick up many possible listeners worldwide according to my server status quo. Yes I was wrong in a previous post my server is working correctly it does pick up all data currently getting used by the server in which is what I use to determine roughly how many people are listening, I am aware that some of of the connected devices are bots, because that is normal but I think most of the connections are real people or places like a bar or a restaurant or even a grocery store like Kroger a Walmart.
I cannot tell who or what is listening because of all the different VPN's people use. but all I know is that my radio station currently picks up a many connections both long and short term. Mostly short term like all radio stations though. It is a public stream, because I am willing to pay for a license and I believe that as long as I continue to have a license it's ok to run my station in public, to anyone online, because that is what most people on YouTube do.
I do not play commercials, but I do talk sometimes and sometimes the messages do repeat themselves because they are all automated recordings shuffled together. (THE SEPTEMBER 2023 ANGEL CLASSIC ROCK MIX NEWS POST)
