 Just having an account with them means they can call you a
subscriber even if you are not paying them anything or even
watching anything. They're nothing more than a pack of
deceiving liars.
 If you need to subscribe to obtain their service,
notifications, or show your support then you are a subscriber.

 Yes, which for Disney+ means that you have to actually pay
something to them (a subscription fee) as there is no free
content!

 Nope. Once you've registered then you count as a subscriber, including if you're on a free 12 month subscription given away by your mobile phone provider. Even if you never pay Disney anything every again they still count you as a subscriber.

 Hmm!! Isn't English a wonderful language .... where "subscriber" means you don't have to pay a brass razzo!!

You can easily subscribe to lots of free things, such as email newsletters, pod casts, etc.
You can subscribe for a free quarterly printed kids' Lego magazine physically delivered to your house at <https://www.lego.com/magazine> (only available in a few countries though).
Depending on the terminology used by your Usenet newsreaders app, you could be subscribed to this newsgroup.
