Microsoft Edge: Automatically unsubscribe users from notifications sent by scam and malicious sites

Microsoft Edge now automatically unsubscribes users from notifications originating from sites flagged as scam, phishing, or malware by Microsoft Defender SmartScreen. Users retain the ability to manually review and restore notification permissions at edge://settings/privacy/sitePermissions/allPermissions/notifications if needed.

Microsoft's description

Microsoft Edge now helps further protect users from malicious web notifications. When a notification leads users to a site that Microsoft Defender SmartScreen blocks as a scam, phishing, or malware page, Edge automatically stops that source from sending users further notifications and lets users know. Users can review and restore any of these sites anytime under edge://settings/privacy/sitePermissions/allPermissions/notifications.
