Google is reportedly taking measures to bring down the number of unwanted notifications that a user receive via Chrome. The tech giant intends to do this by blocking notifications from websites that it perceives to be disruptive. A new code change will give Google the ability to automatically revoke a website's permission to send notifications to the user and also block attempts to ask for permission in the future. Google says that these types of disruptive notifications are in violation of the company's “Developer Terms of Service”. Chrome's notification spam block protection is seeing a slow rollout. Google Chrome for Android was recently spotted experimenting a feature to let users restore all closed tabs at once.
