You can't get the end result by automation alone but you could automate half of it.
1) Use AppScript from google to find those.
2) Save all the links.
3) Go through them manually (because each service will want you to confirm you did not click by mistake).

- chungy 3y agoIs this why they always have a confirm button? That's been a pet-peeve annoyance of mine.
- JimDabell 3y agoIt’s a basic part of HTTP. If you follow a link, that’s a GET request. GET requests are supposed to be safe. A user may not have initiated the action if it’s a GET. If you want something that implies “yes, the user made an intentional choice to take action”, then use another verb, like POST.
- pvorb 3y agoThere must be some additional logic behind that, because I see this regularly behind GET requests and I'm not being unsubscribed from everything.
