That's how I ended up paying for YouTube premium one time! I clicked on a YouTube (short)link on Twitter or somewhere and YouTube app opened, then a blocking dialog asked about premium membership and the button to get the membership (after trial period) is bolder, so you are more likely to press it accidentally if you are eager to watch the video! I got so angry that I deleted my payment method from my Google account.
They research patterns, and they know how and when to ask you to press a button. Not illegal but unfair IMO. Take this post for example, changing SSID is so inconvenient that the user might not want to go through the whole process.
