Yeah, now I’m suspecting something less malicious.

Speaking to support they don’t know what time zone the 514am timestamp is in. I think it’s likely to be UTC, which means it happened at 814am.

I have a two year old. I’m gonna chalk it up to him. If it was 814am it’s way more likely.

Still super weird cause the tv wasn’t on. But given the time of day, seems much more likely.

Depending on your model of TV and how it's connected, it's possible for the Apple TV to be on and responding to inputs even if the TV is off. If it was on, and a promotional popup came up offering the free trial, then depending on just what the flow is for those popups, it's possible that a small child just fiddling with the remote could accidentally have accepted it.

(I know that our TV is often off while our Apple TV is on; I have no knowledge of how those promotional popups work, as I haven't accepted one.)

UTC <> EST is a 5 hour difference, with UTC being ahead of EST, and 05:14 UTC would be 00:14 EST, so just after midnight.

08:14 EST would align with 05:14 PST though
