RM 2.2 Users receiving update notifications for resources they aren't watching

[CStrategies]

A user reported that they received an update notification "X updated the resource Y", but the only interaction they have had with that resource was to view its overview page. They haven't commented, rated, or watched the resource.

Is there some other trigger that will send this type of notification, or should I be looking for a bug or addon conflict?

So in testing it appears users receive update notifications if they have previously downloaded a resource. Is there a way to remove/disable these notifications that are based on whether the resource has been downloaded by the user?

Nevermind. I now see that downloading the resource automatically sets the resource as watched.

I see the preference for receiving notifications on updates, but I don't see a preference for "watch resources that I download". Or am I missing it?

I believe it uses the “Automatically watch content you interact with” setting
