This popped up on my work laptop yesterday. Very annoying.

    Nah, browsers are so much worse, but that’s because most users blindly accept notifications from any sketch website then call and cry to IT because they “got a virus”.

    I don’t miss my days supporting end users…

      We configured an allowlist of domains allowed to send notifications through our GPOs, everything else is blocked to the end-users. It reduced the amount of calls related to “virus alert” for sure.

      First thing I do when I open Firefox or Chrome for the first time is go into settings and disable the ability for websites to request notifications permissions
