Definitely. I really don't understand this sudden obsession with every website wanting to show notifications.



It’s a marketing channel that increases conversion rate overall, you might deny access but a % of people don’t (maybe some even find it useful) and those people convert very easily. So basically if you enable push notifications you make more money.


In other words, the usual spammer business model: "go for the suckers."
