Yeah, I am an IT guy and at our office there have been two users in the last year who has somehow enabled notifications from what is clearly a spam site which keeps spamming notifications as if it were McAffee Anti-Virus.
I need to get a policy pushed out to disable any requests for new notifications from websites...
Where I used to work, they got those from those shady pirated audiobook sites. Just log their DNS queries for a week and you’ll know what to block.
You can do that with Firefox ESR across your company in a similar way to group policy.
