I think it’s just the way the extension works. Not really a list, but the extension is designed to click the decline link on anything that would lead to setting tracking cookies, like those notification requests.
An interesting thing to note is that I’m also seeing that my browser is asking whether to allow notifications from the site or not, rather than the site asking directly.
I’ll have to do more testing. Ideally, I’d like to only use Adguard, since that’s what I use across multiple devices. I’m sure I can find the filter list/settings that produce the same result as Ghostery… hopefully. LOL
I’ve used Ghostery before, for a while, actually! I love the extra details it provides.
Since I have a paid Adguard account, I use that system wide. UBO is left on because I like the element blocker it uses.
Give it a try again and see if it gets rid of that top popup. I never get notification requests like that.
The subscribe one will probably still be there though.
Well, shit! I just installed it on a secondary, clean browser and did a before and after. What do you know? No popup when using Ghostery!
Now I have to figure out if it’s a list that isn’t enabled in the other blockers, or if they just suck. LOL

Either way, I’m glad it worked!

Pretty sure you can disable that in the browser itself though.
