Reproduction steps:

1. Create two admin users: user1 and user2
2. Login with user2
3. Create a new Basic Web Content and add it to the Welcome page
4. On the Web Content Display portlet, click on the top-right ellipsis (aka "the 3 vertical dots") > Configure > Content Metadata > Select > Comments
5. Checkpoint: a Subscribe to comments section should now appear onto the portlet
6. Click on "Subscribe to comments"
7. Login with user1
8. Edit the web content (for example, give a new title and content), then publish:

Actual behavior: An email notification is sent
Expected behavior: No email notifications should be sent, because user1 did not comment on the web content
