Dark spots bottom of screen: 2021 16" MBP

Hopefully these show up in the attached picture, but I'm getting dark spots on the bottom of my screen. At first only the lower left side and now another one as well. Of course my laptop doesn't have AppleCare. Any sense of why this is? Is it a known problem? Thanks.

Is it out-of-warranty, or do you have AppleCare?

I'd make an appt. at a brick-n-mortar Apple Store genius bar, let them look at it.

Yes it is out of warranty and without AppleCare unfortunately.

@michaelsaxon I have the exact same model from 2021 AND the same lower-left dark spot beginning to appear in the same place. Could I ask if/how you resolved this, and how much you had to pay if they required payment? Curious if the cause was determined to be manufacturer defect or normal use (or e.g. gripping the laptop too hard while closed there). Thanks.
