Hello guys!

Lately, in one of my videos "Youtube advertising" is showing up as a traffic source.
However I do not run any advertising myself, and I did not give permission to any other account to run advertising for this video.

Does anyone know where this could come from?
Can actually just anyone promote one of videos?

Interestingly there are only short peaks where my video seems to be promoted. This happens early in the morning from 6 to 7 am when the traffic of my video is generally low.

I am worried that this badly placed ads can harm the organic growth of my video.

Cheers,
Armin
