Release Note Request (optional, but appreciated) [Why is this notable]: Sites on the safebrowsing list, e.g. for phishing will now be blocked from sending notifications and they will have their notification permissions revoked. This is particularly relevant for cases where a user grants notification permission and the site only gets listed on safebrowsing later. [Affects Firefox for Android]: Yes, it's a platform level feature. [Suggested wording]: Firefox now automatically blocks notifications and permanently revokes permissions for any website flagged as malicious by SafeBrowsing. This prevents unsafe sites from sending background notifications to users, commonly used for ads, spam or phishing. [Links (documentation, blog post, etc)]: -
