I am seriously starting to question if YT have started selling packages where you can buy subscribers to your channel…
A few weeks ago I noted that I had been subscribed to three smaller channels of generic corporate slop videos, I unsubscribed naturally.
Today I was watching a video on my phone I suddenly noticed that as I was closing the video a pop up saying that I had subscribed to the channel, I was very confused as I was already subscribed to the channel I was watching, Hidden In Sweden (btw, the last video was very interesting), and I checked my subscriptions…
I had been subscribed to a random holiday home rental company in Spain’s channel…
Are there ads that immediately subscribe you to a channel? What is going on?
I’ve seen this. You’ll get a video recommendation that is technically on two channels at once, and you may be subscribed to only one of them. This may be particularly annoying if you’ve deliberately not subscribed to the other guy featured in the video.
