Quick summary

If you're logged in to a WordPress.com account and try to subscribe to a website, that account takes over the subscription regardless of the email address you put into the subscribe block.

A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

I expect to get a confirmation modal indicating the email address I tried to sign up with, as well as a confirmation email to that address.

What actually happened

  1. The confirmation modal pops up with the email address for the account I am logged in to.
  2. I get no confirmation email.
  3. However, I am automatically subscribed to that blog, without having confirmed via email.

When trying to subscribe via an incognito window, it works as expected.
