That is:

  • Notification requests that force users to allow notifications in order to obtain in the content of the website
  • Alert requests that display misleading prompts
  • Pop-up notifications that look like s, or system warnings
  • Ιστότοποι που μόλις λάβουν την έγκριση για την εμφάνιση ειδοποιήσεων στο πρόγραμμα περιήγησης, χρησιμοποιούν τις ειδοποιήσεις για να κλέψουν προσωπικά ή να εξαπατήσουν τους χρήστες να μοιραστούν προσωπικά στοιχεία
  • Websites that have just received approval to display notifications use it to promote, host, or link to malicious or unwanted software.

Websites that use the notification API properly will be allowed to display notifications as long as they do not annoy users or use dark practices.

Webmasters who have registered their domain in Google's Search Console can check whether their site will be banned from July through the Search Console dashboard, in the new Report Abusive Notifications section ).
