Folks, I've discovered something very scary.

First of all, here's all the data for one of my trumpets.
All the videos I uploaded are all black, without any tags or covers, and all the videos I recorded are all black without any sound...

But he found a very weird thing!
These videos I had set them up from start to finish to not be shown publicly, and could only be found by linking to them, and I hadn't sent my links to anyone.


But the system gave me more or less recommended viewing for each video... On a non-public basis.

One of my videos got 7 subscriptions,633 views and 60,000 referrals. Most of the views came from the front page.


Can you also explain what this is all about
Tubing expert needed!


But I have done some tinkering with these videos. The videos were watched using links: There was also a portion of the videos that used magic links to fake the system's recommendations. , as well as faking competitor recommendations as well as front page recommendations. , but not many, maybe only a dozen.

What are you even trying to ask? Are you saying you are getting views by uploading videos as unlisted?

What I want to ask is, why I set the video to not public, the system can still give me referral traffic.

Also this video has been up for a month since it was posted and it has never been made public in that month. The moment it was posted, it was always a non-public video.

Okay the video was not public so did you uploaded the video as private or not? Only unlisted videos can shared using link only. Privated videos can be shared using email via computer. What do you mean by referrals?

I did not list the video as private. I just set the video as not public, but I don't understand why the system can still recommend the video. And it's giving me a lot of streams within this garbage video.
