This is a warning. If you have any weird account activity on your youtube such as favorites added that you didn't favorite, videos uploaded to your page, your account closed suddenly, it is because there is a glitch in the youtube log in system.
This has happened to me several times. The first time I just thought it was a one time thing, but this is what is happening:
Sometimes youtube asks me to log in even after I have logged in earlier that day. When I click sign in, it logs me automatically, and bypasses the password screen, into one of the friends of my main account. (Meaning my main youtube account has a lot of friends added as contacts. It will randomly log me into one of those accounts, enabling me to see their videos, favorites, email address, etc.)
I'm honest, and I log out immediately. However if this is happening to me, I'm sure that it is the same for other people. This means someone could possibly log into my account without my password because of this glitch.
And no, these are not the accounts of people that I know irl, so there is no possibility they just left the password cookies on my computer or something.
So beware. I reported this, and if this happens to you anytime in the future, remember this thread and report as well. This is something I think must be fixed.
I'm worried because since all smash uploaders are all on like a network, some idiot could just figure out how to exploit and then all smash vids gone
Idk if its my browser that has the glitch, I'm using firefox btw
