Here's how to keep your YouTube subscriptions private:
I did not realize that my #YouTube subscriptions were visible to the world. Turns out that keeping them private is *opt-in* for your #Google YouTube account...and worse, there's a #UX #darkpattern nudging you to not set them to #private. Typically, one turns *on* public features and the toggle in the *on* position would be for public setting. It's opposite here; you have to turn *on* private settings.
Here's how. Head to your YouTube privacy settings at the following #URL:
