Macbook Air m1 close lid problem

My macbook air m1 is new, i made sure it’s up to date and I haven’t even downloaded much apps yet. All I have is Spotify. Whenever i shut down my macbook, it opens on its own everytime i close the lid why is this happening?

It's a feature of the new Apple M1 MacBooks. You cannot disble it (at least there is *currently* no way to do so). Even when it is shut down, any keypress, track pad click or opening the lid will wake it up and boot into the operating system.

No, as I mentioned above:

No key needs to be pressed neither intentional nor accidental. The simple action of opening the lid will wake the M1 MacBook.
