I have to admit I've never experienced this. When I check the "all" checkbox it goes and checks all the other checkboxen for me. Maybe I've only interacted with "nice" unsubscribe pages.

I've seen both versions, and whether they check or uncheck all of the other options (behaving like a radio button), both versions are overcomplicated nonsense.

The unsubcribe-all should just be a link or button with its own submit value or URL param (like unsubscribe=all).

I don't know why people overcomplicate things.
