They can also use push notification on websites, and for both websites and apps you have to agree to a system prompt first to allow it to happen.

I once saw one that said a specific date, except they set up some automation to edit the comment and update the date to be today’s date every day. They had thousands of replies from people who “also” watched today, what a coincidence.

Apparently no one stopped to think why there are months worth of people also watching today.
