Microsoft Edge now disables notifications from sites that lead users to detected scams
Edge 156 links Microsoft Defender SmartScreen and Scareware blocker detections to notification permissions, so when a notification leads to a detected scam, the originating site's notifications are disabled automatically. An information bar appears on the next launch, and users can review and restore blocked sites in Edge Settings. Users can also use the Block and report option when a site requests notification permission.
