Random Songs/Stations Added to My Collection

Why do random things pop up in my collection?  Do you all have a security issue?

Stop automatically adding stuff to collection!!!

I hate, hate, hate this!! Worst ux design in human history! You are actively discouraging us from trying out stuff! I hate it so much, that you force users to either have a jumbled pile of garbage as a collection, or spend a significant amount of time deleting all the junk you automatically add, or get stuck listening to the same 10 things forever. Such a user hostile ux! The only reason you're still in business is that the competition is also terrible. Never automatically add anything to my collection! Ever!

To clarify, Pandora does not add any content to your collection for you.

It sounds like you may have an unauthorized user who is accessing your account if you see that happening.

I am seeing that in my collection, and also my playlist.

I only have my desk top and amazon alexa. No one else should be adding to my collection or play list.

For some strange reasons I’m getting new stations added to my collection but I’m not searching for new stations. Everyday I log in there is new stations that I don’t search for. Please advise!
